(see page 5: "Dans la bande de fr?quences*5150-5350* MHz, les WAS/RLAN sont limit?s ? une *utilisation int?rieure* ...") 2) the limits of the frequency band is ~20MHz greater for all frequency values (5150 vs. 5170, 5350 vs. 5330, 5470 vs. 5490, 5725 vs. 5710) So IMHO the description for France should read: country FR: DFS-ETSI (2402 - 2482 @ 40), (N/A, 20) # ref: ARCEP 08-0568 http://www.arcep.fr/uploads/tx_gsavis/08-0568.pdf (5150 - 5250 @ 80), (N/A, 20), NO-OUTDOOR (5250 - 5350 @ 80), (N/A, 20), NO-OUTDOOR, DFS (5470 - 5725 @ 80), (N/A, 27), DFS # 60 gHz band channels 1-4, ref: Etsi En 302 567 (57240 - 65880 @ 2160), (N/A, 40), NO-OUTDOOR By the way, this looks very like the description for Germany (DE) now!
