Default WiFi packet on the 2390-2450Mhz band?

802.11b and 802.11g WiFi networking equipment operates at a range of
frequencies from 2.412 GHz to 2.462 GHz. There's a ham band at 2390 to
2450, and it looks like there's some overlap here. Usually wifi
software asks what country you're in, USA allows WiFi channels 1 to
11, and Europe 1 to 13, Japan allows only channel 14. Seems that some
(most?!) wifi channels are in the ham band, so, with a little more
power, we could do high speed packet as hams with wifi cards. Make
your node name your callsign.

This even vaguely make sense?



Doing it here ... is simple.
