Its easy to get a NON-US radio inside the US, all you have to do is sign a document that states you will receive it in the US and ship it out side of the US for deployment. Now, if they did that, and someone can track that down, that’s a whole other issue. .

I figure there are two options here: 1) They're knowingly using a non-US radio in the US, or they've otherwise hacked the US radio to operate outside of the band. In this case, good luck to them. 2) Somehow they've gotten a non-US radio in the US without knowing, and/or the UBNT software didn't limit them to the US bands for some reason. In this case, I hope that they can plead ignorance, and treat it as a learning experience. A lot of the problem anymore is that there are so many different iterations of radios out there, and as a result, it can be difficult to keep track of which bands each is legal for. If the radios don't enforce it, there's a good chance that someone will unintentionally turn a radio up on a band the radio isn't authorized for. On the other hand, one would think that you'd be aware of TWDR and avoid that frequency range like the plague....

I don't think those ever had updated stickers (I could be wrong, but that's a relatively new design, which I think was after all that nonsense). I wonder if it was the non-US model...

Is that an DFS unlock code with updated sticker required model they were using, but didn't bother to actually put the new sticker on it? -- Forrest Christian CEO, PacketFlux Technologies, Inc.
