It's relatively cheap and easy to get Ubiquiti gear that covers that band. It's sold by US distributors for use in Europe but upon showing your license some dealers will sell to you. <div><br></div><div>On a related note the FCC rules change on router software means that new gear won't be able to access the 2.4 and 5.7 GHz ham bands like is currently done with reflashed Ubiquiti routers using AREDN software.</div><div><br></div><div>Time to start rolling our own microwave gear. </div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Fri, Apr 29, 2016 at 7:36 PM, Mark Whittington <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:markwhi@gmail.com" target="_blank">markwhi@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr">Use it or lose it, they say.
