+	  and willing to ensure your system will remain regulatory
+	  compliant with the features available under this option.
+	  Some options may still be under heavy development and

+	  cannot yet be verified. Regulatory verification may at
+	  times only be possible until you have the final system
+	  in place.

+	  This option should only be enabled by system integrators

+	  features. Alternatively you can enable this option if
+	  you are a wireless researcher and are working in a controlled
