Re: 3650 Mhz

I also understand that most of the west and east costs are excluded  
from utilizing this "light-licensed" WISP band which is a shame,  
because I've been saying that we need one for years. -Most- WISPs are  
good at co-ordinating with each other when asked to do so. Residential  
users on the other hand cloud up the space with cheap devices and make  
it far more difficult to fully utilize what limited frequency space  
we've been allocated.
