 f***'em'all. fund 3G / LTE open hardware replacements (cell towers
*and* handsets), combined with 802.22 whitespace broadband operating
on between 140 to 700mhz for long-range communications, all as SDR...

 ... then get the equipment FCC Certified so that it's known to be safe...

 ... then completely ignore the FCC entirely except for actual genuine
safety reasons.

 i've had it with hearing these kinds of stories [and experiencing them]

p.s. yes, OpenBTS is developing 3G and 4G (LTE) as open hardware but
they forgot to develop a client at the same time.
