Re: [ath9k-devel] Fixing the rate and rate relationship to OFDM
I'd like to write/release a bunch of testing tools to let the open community do this themselves, but the worry is that the FCC will get angry. Let them get angry, the HAMs will police there own.

Adrian ___ ath9k-devel mailing list ath9k-devel@lists.ath9k.org https://lists.ath9k.org/mailman/listinfo/ath9k-devel Could I make a request. One of the things that would be useful as a result of doing this work would a standard way for people with licences to extend the range as defined by CRDA. In the case discussed here it is a HAM licence for frequencies below 2.4GHz, in my case the area of interest is what is known as Band C here in the UK at 5.8GHz. You do need a licence (£1 per station per year to a minimum of £50 per year) from Ofcom (our FCC) but it is easy to obtain. The 5.8 band users are also allowed more power than you would be in the normal 802.11a band. Once that standard way (preferably without rebuilding the kernel) has been defined it should be made public with lots of caviats written around it saying that this can only be used if you posess a licence and that you are personally liable for its misuse. David ___ ath9k-devel mailing list ath9k-devel@lists.ath9k.org https://lists.ath9k.org/mailman/listinfo/ath9k-devel David, A standard would be nice but can it be done without opening the Pandora box for misuse. US Amateur also have privileges in the 5cm band which overlaps the the 5 Ghz ISM band. We are secondary users of this band with little power restriction other than not causing interference to other user of this spectrum. It would be nice to see a open source solution without having to buy more expensive commercial gear.

Jerry, KD4YAL Hi Jerald, Obviously Alex shows bizarre behavior - hi got a full support from important persons (do not including myself) and disappear. So please tell us about your project and I try to renew the correspondence. It's something to take off-list. It's also not easy to do correctly, for all the reasons we've discussed off-list. I think with a bit of persistence, those with the relevant licences could get some further help. But you're going to have to go code diving to understand what's involved in the TX path. :) (The RX path looks mostly easy.) Adrian Adrian, I am fine with taking it off the list and any help would be appreciated.

Currently I live in a condo so it makes putting up HAM radio antennas almost impossible. So may goal is to setup a WIFI link between my condo and my truck to be able to work my radio station in my truck remotely. The ISM 2.4 Ghz band is quite crowed here in my area so it would be nice to use the spectrum below 2.412 Ghz which I am Licensed to use. Actually US HAMs may use from 2.390 - 2450 which overlaps channel 1 of the 2.4 ISM band. It is not uncommon for HAMs to use modified gear in our stations. This is what HAM radio is about experimentation to advance the art of radio use. Any information to accomplish my goals on or off the list would be much appreciated.
