Hi Peter,

ok, got it.

But I don't call it dead code when its sole purpose is to be tested by developers (i.e. useless for the common user) and can be easily enabled by those. This is only a tiny fraction of the DFS functionality at the lowest layer that need additional support at the upper (mac, hostapd) that is missing so far. Therefore I opted to make it available for devs until all pieces are in (no authority issue, just sanity), but will change it in v3.


Thanks for your feedback
