Poor you. You'll get over it.

I'm not here to do your research for you for free. The way I understand it, you're hoping to make a profit from a non-conforming use of Part 15 type-accepted equipment; expecting me to assist you is not very realistic. Don't you guys have RF engineers on staff?

What the referenced (2003) SpaceDaily article is describing a press release for a company making WiFi hotspots with a satellite backhaul....the backhaul being in a legitimately licenced Earth-to-Space allocation outside the amateur bands. You want to use a mesh network in an already allocated band licenced to somebody else as the backhaul.

By the way, AMSAT isn't the only organization representing amateur radio users of the 2.4GHz allocation; I only cited it as an example.
