Faisal has good advice here.   The licensed gear is marginally more expensive 
but just works.   No worries about interference and you free up the unlicensed 
spectrum for what makes you $$$ - point to multipoint.  You (probably) can't 
buy licensed spectrum for PtMP, but you can for point to point.

The way the CBRS rules are working out I'm not convinced 3550-3700 is going to 
be a band you want to use for PTP due to the complexity of the SAS and the 
potential of required frequency changes.
