Since [[OsmocomBB:]] does support [[OsmocomBB:SDR_PHY|SDR PHY]] now, the working frequency range is only limited by hardware capabilities. In other words, the "ARFCN -> frequency" calculation may be modified to add a constant frequency offset, so this will allow one to run both base stations and ([[OsmocomBB:]]-based) mobile stations on any frequency (e.g. in 2.4 GHz WiFi band)!
