Re: [PATCH] wireless-regdb: Update rules for Australia (AU) and add 60GHz rules

From: Ryan Mounce <hidden>

Hi Sebastian,

There is no explicit channel width restriction in the document,
however the only band in which the current regdb rules permit 160MHz
operation (5490-5710MHz) would result in an overlap with the
restricted weather radar band 5600-5650MHz.

While remaining in compliance with both 802.11 and Australian law,
contiguous 160MHz operation in 5GHz is only permitted between
5170-5330MHz which spans two bands with slightly different
requirements, hence AUTO-BW.

Regards,
Ryan Mounce

can't find any restriction in the document in a quick review

Sourced from the latest legislation at
https://www.legislation.gov.au/Details/F2016C0043

The current rules exceed legal limits between 5250-5330MHz, and permit
illegal operation in 5600-5650MHz (reserved for weather radar).
