Another WISP has already gotten an FCC license using the Ubiquiti XR3
card as the registered device... in fact, the FCC actually called this

You're welcome. First I don't want to jeopardize my FCC Commercial and

As far as I know from my contacts you need a full system certified. You
just can't register a single unit of a certified system.
Yes.

Approval by getting your FCC cert ID means it qualifies, period.
And yes, 802.11 is contention based but the FCC refuses to allow 802.11 to
be approved for the full spectrum until some 802.something standard is
finalized.

It doesn't have to have a contention based protocol for use in the lower
