I would be shocked if all of the requirements of IEEE 802.11af are = handled in the hardware! Go back and actually read and understand that = specification. I do not expect the hardware to be querying a geolocation = database (often multiple databases) and acting accordingly. I have been watching this specific bit of spectrum from the Wireless = Microphone / FCC side for a decade now. If systems start coming into use = that do NOT follow the required procedures there will be hell to pay as = these specific frequencies are in use by lots of other users besides = wireless networking. -- Paul Kraus paul@kraus-haus.org
