Better put the brakes on a little. As the it reads, the non TSO'd equipment does not have to be constructed according to TSO requirements but it is still the responsibility of the PIC to have verifiable documentation that the equipment performs to the TSO'd standards for IFR operation. VFR is with impunity, as dead reckoning can be your out as to a primary means of navigation.
