I've probably said this before but I'll repeat it anyhow.
There is no universal requirement for a radio system to be designed 
by a PE.

Some jurisdictions may do so just because they have no clue as to 
what is being done.

In Florida a PE is required to sign off radio systems used for EMS 
and hospitals because some archaic law says so.

Of the 50 to 70 systems I have beeen involved with over the years 
across the US I have never seen one set of specifications requiring a 
PE--except for tower design.

The scary part is the large number of systems designed by people who 
think they know what they are doing, but don't, and then built by 
manufacturers who just want the bucks and not the responsibility for 
performance.
