Why? The existing Frequency property provides a more unique
identification of the operating channel. The channel number itself is
not unique identification and would need to be combined with the
operating class (and even country code if global operating classes are
not used).

Those are not 16-bit values..

And that type of type casting does not work in general (e.g., with big
endian CPUs).

Why would this be UINT16?
