George, I think there is a lot of this sort of thing happening and I think intentions are good, but, no, I do not think this meets the requirement.

I'm assuming money makes it commercial. I would like to deploy a couple links for non paying situations, cameras for a city park. I'd also like to have the license....and not be wasting my limited unlicensed spectrum. Do you think this is a legit use for 3650?
