Re: [WISPA] question for the group

Oh boy! IANAL...  That phrase 'Professional Installer' is likely the single most contentious thing the FCC has done in the last 20 years... In general, it seems that as long as you follow the EIRP and frequency rules and don't cause interference to a licensed user, all is good. OTOH, if you run way over the power limits, operate out of band or interfere with licensed users, they will, sooner or later, come find you. Others have other opinions. My opinion is that the terms 'Professional Installer' and ' Professionally Installed', have no real meaning as the FCC has, to the best of my knowledge, failed to define either term.

However I'm being asked by a client to do an outside install.  This is likely to be in the 5Ghz range. I've found a reference to  "Devices must be professionally installed when operating in the 5470 – 5725 MHz band" I'm aware of avoidance of TDWR systems and the allowed and disallowed frequencies in that band. However, I can't find reference to what is meant by a "Professional Installer". Is there a licensing program that I can't seem to find by googling??
