・Above region code relating channel list is programmed in the module by module manufacturer
(Silex).
・Since programmed region code and channel list is binary data and user cannot know the structure
of program, any customers cannot change usable channels.

Compliance with FCC requirement 15.407(c)
Data transmission is always initiated by software, which is the passed down through the MAC,
through the digital and analog baseband, and finally to the RF chip. Several special packets
are initiated by the MAC. These are the only ways the digital baseband portion will turn on the
RF transmitter, which it then turns off at the end of the packet. Therefore, the transmitter
will be on only while one of the aforementioned packets is being transmitted. In other words,
this device automatically discontinue transmission in case of either absence of information to
transmit or operational failure.
