I guess I will leave it this way for now so that the band is usable in both indoor and outdoor settings. Based on the latest discussion, I have updated the rules as below: # Source: # https://www.ofca.gov.hk/filemanager/ofca/en/content_401/hkca1039.pdf (2.4 GHz and 5 GHz) # https://www.ofca.gov.hk/filemanager/ofca/en/content_401/hkca1081.pdf (6 GHz) country HK: DFS-ETSI (2400 - 2483.5 @ 40), (36) (5150 - 5250 @ 80), (23), AUTO-BW, NO-OUTDOOR (5250 - 5350 @ 80), (23), DFS, AUTO-BW, NO-OUTDOOR (5470 - 5725 @ 160), (27), DFS (5725 - 5850 @ 80), (36) (5925 - 6425 @ 160), (14) If the rules look fine to you, I will try to submit a patch for this change. Thanks for your time and your help!
