Hi
I hope I am doing this the right way (following the Plain English approach and not a git patch…).
I don’t think the current frequency bands and power limits for ZA are correct.
My sources are the following documents published this year:
http://www.ellipsis.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/Guide-to-commonly-used-licence-exempt-frequency-bands-April-2015.pdf
Specifically page 74 of http://www.ellipsis.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/Radio-Frequency-Spectrum-Regulations-2015.pdf
The bands don’t quite match up and DFS/TPC is (apparently) not required for 5470 - 5725. More importantly, the max transmitted power
seems to be 1W/30dBm e.i.r.p and not 27dBm. I would submit a complete patch, but I am not sure if the 5725 - 5875 band should be part of it…
Regards
Karl
