Careful about using high factors like this.  Right now the rank is computed 
using a double, but truncated to a uint32_t and clamped to USHRT_MAX / uint16_t. 
  This works fine, but the FT roaming calculation is a bit more careless.  Could 
lead to very funny results.

We may be better off introducing 2.4GHz factor and suggesting using a 0.0 
multiplier to turn bands off.  Or add an explicit setting.

Regards,
