Subject: [PATCH v2] wireless-regdb: update US rules for 5600 MHz - 5650 MHz
Date: Tue, 27 Oct 2009 12:16:18 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1256660178-5863-1-git-send-email-lrodriguez@atheros.com> (raw)

The FCC is trying to assist airports that use Terminal Doppler
Weather Radar (TDWR) systems in avoiding interference with
some outdoor wireless systems operating in the 5.4 GHz
(5470 MHz - 5725 MHz) band. One of the things they have decided
on is to disallow operation on the 5600 MHz - 5650 MHz frequency
range inclusive. What this means in practice is 5 GHz 802.11
devices programmed to operate in the US will have these
channels now disabled:

 * 5600 MHz [120] (disabled)
 * 5620 MHz [124] (disabled)
 * 5640 MHz [128] (disabled)

This is documented on the FCC Knowledge based Publication
Number: 443999 [1]

I'm on 2 hours of sleep due to jet lag so I had chopped out
channel 132 (5660 MHz) but this is not required obviously. This v2
fixes that.
