Scanners
| Generally, scanning receivers and radios may be listed on eChinabid. However, you may not list any scanning receiver or radio that receives cellular transmissions or has "full 800mz" coverage. |
Low power radio transmitting devices and related equipment
On FM frequencies, these low power devices are limited to an effective service range of approximately 35 to 100 feet (11-to-30 meters).
On the AM broadcast band, these devices are limited to an effective service range of approximately 200-to-250 feet (61 to 76 meters). eChinabid does not permit the listing of devices that claim or suggest a more extensive range, as such items may violate these regulations. |
Radar jamming devices
| There are some products that claim to "jam" or otherwise interfere with police radar devices. Such devices are not lawful, and therefore they may not be listed on eChinabid. |
Traffic light control devices or signal changers
| Products that claim to change stoplights or otherwise inhibit the natural pattern of a traffic signal are not permitted. |
Extended coverage high frequency transceivers
Equipment that is intended to operate in various radio services in the high frequency radio spectrum, including "10-Meter" Amateur Radio Service (ARS) equipment, is unlawful and may be unsold.
Users may not list a high frequency transceiver that is designed to operate on frequencies outside of the ARS bands if it has not been issued a grant of equipment authorization for the radio service(s) in which the transmitter is capable of operating. |
CB amplifiers
It is not permitted to use the power amplifiers with Citizens Band radios. Therefore, eChinabid prohibits any listings of the following:
- CB amplifiers
- Amplifiers specified for use on the 11 Meter band
- Amplifiers designed for use in frequencies 24 MHz to 35MHz
- Amplifiers posted within the CB category
|
Cordless telephones
Most cordless telephones are lawful and may be sold on eChinabid. Cordless telephones, as opposed to cellular telephones, are designed to transmit by radio waves to a portable handset connected to an existing telephone line.
Unauthorized long-range cordless telephones may interfere with frequencies of authorized users and aeronautical communications. |
Odometer Modification Devices
|
| Because it is unlawful in many jurisdictions to reset odometers to read less than the true actual mileage on a motor vehicle, sales of odometer modification and calibration devices (whether manual or electronic) are prohibited on eChinabid. |
