No but you can rent them equipment I think. From: Ken Hohhof Sent: Tuesday, February 02, 2016 2:52 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [AFMUG] TVWS equipment in 2016
One of the problems with experimental licenses is that I don’t believe you are allowed to charge end users for service.

If I remember correctly, Cambium did say at one point that they had gone as far building prototype TVWS equipment, but they gave up on it because they didn't it would be a viable product.

If so, just down convert the frequency and use that (obviously there is the nasty database situation to deal with but...). One can always get an experimental license.

It is looking increasingly like I could describe the current state of equipment available as "half baked prototypes". There has been a lot of noise and hot air but very little real products that are as mature and tangible as the cambium 900MHz new 450-serirs gear.
