I probably missed something here! Can you guide us where we can read what make's you "understand

actually migrating towards 5.2ghz and higher? I was in Miami FL in July and i observed the same 
trend?

Have you been on AO-51 last week where U/S mode was on? I was and i can tell you there is 
absolutely no interference who prevent me to hear and make contacts without any problem..That's

about. I am not trying to second guessing anyone here!
