Where it gets a little trickier is when you want to change parameters on a working system. Like frequency, channel width, moving SM to a different AP, etc. Cambium accommodates all of these with clever features, but it can be confusing to the operator if you don’t do it all the time. Some of

I expect they’ll do both. But are you planning to only use 3650-3700 because it’s dedicated GAA? In 3550-3650 I don’t think there’s dedicated GAA and PAL channels, and PAL licensed don’t come with assigned channels. So the limit on number of PALs per county mean there would be at most 7 PA
