Neither TPC nor DFS are currently required in Panama. I verified this via emails with the relevant authority. The Eng. Rene E. Piper from Tv, Radio, and Spectrum Administration Department of the National Authority of Public Services (ASEP) has confirmed me that the current code does not require radar detection. That being said, he has informed me that although the current code does not require TPC or DFS, the department is strongly considering adding the requirement on future versions of the National Plan of Frequency Allocations(PNAF). 2018-03-30 8:59 GMT-05:00 Seth Forshee <seth.forshee@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>: > On Fri, Feb 16, 2018 at 02:33:25PM -0500, Michael Chen wrote: >> Hi, >> >> I've been researching which frequencies are allowed for WiFi in Panama since I >> noticed that WiFi channels 12 and 13 are currently not accesible.
