I'm in South America but way way out in the jungle. It's the wild wild west out 
here so compliance is easy. Regulations? We don't need no stinking regulations! 
This place is quieter than an anechoic chamber.

But I know a guy who's running a wisp in town. His problem is it's the wild 
wild west there too. 2.4GHz is a mess. He just went to 5.8GHz for back hauls 
which is still reasonably pristine but I'm sure that will change. I think all 
the things that apply in your neck of the woods will apply in Haiti - use 
sectors on the APs to help deal with interference, use the narrowest possible 
beam width on back hauls and 5.8GHz is probably the smart way to go, use as 
little power as possible, starting with Airmax now will probably prevent future 
problems with interference. Though in Haiti I imagine equipment theft at remote 
sites could be a problem. Never been to Haiti but I used to sail to the 
relatively richer half of the island (Dominican Republic) and it was the wild 
wild west there too.

One time the captain wanted to test the calibration of the RDF so we tuned in 
the radio beacon. The Dominican Republic's callsign block is HI. The beacon 
transmits it's callsign in morse code. The beacon's callsign was HIV.
