But there is nothing in the proposed bill requiring the FCC to add DJI to their "covered list". I read where the FCC is listed as one of the agencies that would be restricted from using DJI drones, but nothing else.DJI will be added to the FCC's "Covered List" and will no longer receive FCC approval for new hardware to use the radio airwaves regulated by the FCC. This means no new drones from DJI. This means the public has to shop for a different brand if they want a new drone.
There's nothing to highlight because it's not in the proposed bill. You can read all about it later after the bill is passed.But there is nothing in the proposed bill requiring the FCC to add DJI to their "covered list".

Would you be so kind as to highlight the portion that I'm missing?
Thanks

Oh, ok. I understand now. It's in the hidden part of the bill right below another congressional pay raise.There's nothing to highlight because it's not in the proposed bill. You can read all about it later after the bill is passed.
