Hi,
If I understand correctly these changes should be applied not only for US but all FCC countries.

I can say for sure that there's no patch pending. I also agree that it looks like those channels are now allowed, and it also looks to me like we should be able to raise the upper limit of the 5490-5710 MHz range up to 5730 MHz.

Anyone have objections to applying the following change?
