Wal-Mart.com agreed to pay the federal government $120,000 to end an investigation of whether the Wal-Mart subsidiary had violated FCC rules on the sale of wireless mics. “In response to the Commission’s investigation, Wal-Mart.com USA acknowledged that it had not previously included on its website the required consumer alert and that a supplier had not obtained an equipment authorization for one wireless microphone model until after it was offered for sale,” said a notice from the FCC Enforcement Bureau (http://bit.ly/1mr66Dy). “The company agreed to implement a robust three-year plan to ensure future compliance with these requirements."
