The FCC applications have been updated for both the APx card you asked about in AN05T5198 and for the cardbus product AN05T5207. The reports were uploaded to their respective files. I also uploaded revised theory of operation to AN05T5207 similar to what I attached with my email to you re your questions on AN05T5198. Yesterday I heard that IC reports had been uploaded as well. I would like to proceed at Chris's earliest opportunity with the FCC reviews, this is the hottest button right now. Any questions I'm in the office today, except for short breaks when I have cell phone. Cell phone has marginal operation at the office... best regards Tom office 650 726 1263 cell 650 302 0887 >Tom, as I start to get into this project again, I need to know if the >other TCB application and the 2 IC applications have also been updated. >I have these all assigned to me and put them all on hold at Barbara's >request last week. > >Thanks, >Chris > >Chris Harvey >Chris Harvey EMC Consultants, Inc. >[email protected] >cell 443-622-3300 > > >-----Original Message----- >From: Tom Cokenias [mailto:[email protected]] >Sent: Wednesday, October 19, 2005 1:38 AM >To: Compliance Certification Services >Subject: Re: Airgo Networks, FCC ID: SA3-AGN3023MX0100, Assessment NO.: >AN05T5198, Notice#1 > >Dear Chris, > 2 >Answers follow questions.

For AGN3023MX-01 sold in the FCC/IC regulatory domains, the US ISO country code is programmed into EEPROM along with a channel list that limits 2.4 GHz channels to 1 through 11 (2412-2462 MHz) during the manufacturing process. EEPROM programmatic change or override is not provided as an end-user software option.
