[Battlemesh] Questions for a weather radar specialist?

[Zachary Giles]

Thanks for some responses.

Just as a couple of points:
- AirOs 6 is way old, they're up to v8.6 so the interface and options
are all different. You actually can't turn off DFS anymore and only in
certain cases there are frequency lists.
- My experience with them coming to our site is that they don't try to
make sure we're using sane configs ( correct reg, DFS on, TX Power ).
They just say this thing is interfering, turn it off.
- What we're done is as you said, don't use the freqs, just change
everything off that section of the DFS range.

I'm not so much looking for advise and "what to do"; Rather, since
there's a radar expert coming to your site, I think it would be
interesting if there were discussions about how to make DFS radios
work better, or stories of common problems where DFS didnt work, and
maybe advise about if we all should even try to use DFS in areas we
know have airports. :)

Looking forward to the discussion.
