In this particular situation the client (tenant) was owner of both ends (base station and CPE) I think. Correct me if I am wrong. I seem to remember reading that the airline wanted a private WiFi network for themselves. The airport (landlord) was trying to prevent this. In this type of a

Actually I am able to use the entire 900 MHz band here. Selectivity of tuners has never been an issue the FCC seems very willing to consider when adjacent uses are being suggested. As I understand it the systems being proposed are low power vehicle communications. I am not trying to say I am

Why on earth do they want to overlap UNII bands for this purpose? Do they want both UNII and this new system to fail? Why is this something they even considered? Why give them their own band if the intent is to also overlap another unlicensed band? What sort of crack are they smoking here?

In Dboss's case, they found a model where it was more profitable to give away software to make sure they would get paid for more profitable tackon services, than to bill for the software itself. And when they give it away, people like me still critisize its validity for use. Its a tought
