Foosy, have you tried it? I have read the posts that you have referenced and yours. You guys have valid points...but snake oil or shenanigans... My distance with video on the newly provided manual clean channel have greatly improved with this mod than without. As far as adding a certain amount of channels instead of the full 24...hey it is what it is unless you are a coder with SDK to make changes. Anyone here able to break down the channel spread on how we are getting better results with this hack? Someone has put the effort into providing this config file out for the community that has been jonesing for their 32 channels back. Now we have it and without ill effects. And you want to suggest smelling snake oil? OK I guess. It does take all kinds to make a community.
No, I have not tried it. But I am basing my comments on engineering data, being I am an engineer.
I am not arguing that a certain channel could be less noisy for you. I am arguing, that regardless of which channel you use, if you use a clean channel , either one of the 8 or one of the 32 enabled by the hack, you should get the same result. Whichever channel you use does not, and cannot increase the range.
I see some people have started to do experiments that will prove the point.
So, I also started to think, what could, engeeringly, cause you or others to actually measure a higher range ?
The only thing I can come up with, is if the RF amplifier is not linear, and has more power at certain frequencies. If that particular frequency is the one you are using, you will get more range, as range is a function of power. As a matter of fact, for the range to double, your power would need to quadruple.
