Since a lot of folks seem to be sensitive to that 4800 number, keep in
mind the primary issue that is significantly more important is 'how
many simultanous channels in use'. E.g., if zero channels in use, why
is 4800 a problem? (I'm not the original poster but just somebody that
is rather sensitive to 'actual traffic' and not some meaningless max
appearances / definitions. :)
