[MLB-WIRELESS] 802.11 and 802.11b

[Tony Langdon]

Umm, 52 meg?  MHz or mbps?
 
there is 802.11a, which does 54 Mbps on 5 GHz.  The hardware is just coming
onto our market.  I suspect this is what you mean.  I suspect not very
useful for most of us, due to the relatively long paths our links will
operate over - high speed means more signal/noise ratio required.  And 5 GHz
is even fussier than 2.4
 
as for 52 MHz..  no, I think it would have to be 52 Mbps, as the 52 MHz
region of spectrum is broadcasting (channel 0 TV 45-52 MHz)/amateur (50-54
MHz).

just curious,  but I was all geared up to go wireless with you guys, then I
read an article about 52meg links in the public domain in the US.  HAs
anyone else looked into this (I'm still waiting for the ACA to get back to
me on the legality of using that bandwidth..)
