First, this project requires that you add a Signed-off-by tag to the commit message to acknowledge your agreement to the Developer Certificate of Origin. Please see the CONTRIBUTING file for more information. Second, the patch is not in the correct format. It looks like to me you pasted the output from git-show, which resulted in mangled white space and other issues. Please use git-format-patch to create the patch, then send it using git-send-email or else send the patch as an attachment. > diff --git a/db.txt b/db.txt > index 809cd3c..da0cfad 100644 > --- a/db.txt > +++ b/db.txt > @@ -216,7 +216,8 @@ country CA: DFS-FCC > (2402 - 2472 @ 40), (30) > (5170 - 5250 @ 80), (17), AUTO-BW > (5250 - 5330 @ 80), (24), DFS, AUTO-BW > - (5490 - 5730 @ 160), (24), DFS > + (5490 - 5600 @ 80), (24), DFS > + (5650 - 5730 @ 40), (24), DFS Why isn't 80MHz channel bandwidth allowed in the 5650-5730 range?
