Yeah, the Ubiquity is young company trying to get his place on the market. So that they like to overdrive Sirenza RF PAs to impermissible levels. This leads to raising unwanted emission in adjacent channels, but I don't believe that they have a fake FCC certificate. :) Another issue with Ubiquity cards is the absence of output RF filters, so it can emit some 2nd (>4.8GHz) and 3rd (>7.2 GHz) harmonics when work at high power. BTW the SR71 specification claims 26dBm at MCS0 and only 19dBm at MCS7. Anyway if you do not use adjacent channels it is should not be a big problem (except for the neighbouring networks of course). Best regards, Alex.
