We got OK to do it over MT equipment in unlicensed bands.
Their concern was that A) they didn't want it going over any sort of public
network (i.e. WiFi Hotspot) and B) encryption remained in-tact from the
headend to the STB.

That seams reasonable. Did I understand you correctly earlier in that you can
not talk about the license process due to NDA, or due to not being directly
involved? I will be contacting Avail Media and checking into their offerings.

A couple racks of equipment to provide a couple hundred channels and enough
VoD just takes money.
Usually when you want one channel from a content provider, they make you
offer them all.

Companies like Avail and EchoStar (there has been some consolidation)
provide the raw streams. Organizations like NRTC (and maybe EchoStar) do
the licensing. There were others, but they didn't have a very good HD
channel lineup.
Trust me, I would love to find a way to do this without $500k
I believe UBNT has a box like this in the works. He was also interested in
integrating an ATA, but that would take a bit more work to get right, since
really only Sipura has been able to do that.

MikroTik used to support some sort of VoIP interface; I forget what it was.
I'm sure this is possible as well, if they wanted to. We'd love to have

if it was just a device like the IAXy that'd be fine. But then you get
The atheros driver contains the radio firmware. Thats part of what the 'driver'
