Does anyone know about a regional last year that had an issue with too many APs that would cause FIRST to start sending better radios, or does it seem like they are preempting the problem?
I have a post from last year explaining the problem. The issue manifested at FLR and Florida, and matches couldn't be run until they were able to get the venues to shut down some of the APs.
