Are there any license requirement for the transmit or transceive daughterboards?
The USRP hardware is sold as test equipment. If you choose to use your USRP hardware and daughterboards to transmit using an antenna, it is your responsibility to make sure your use is in compliance with any and all laws for the country, frequency, and power levels in which the device is used. Additionally, some countries regulate reception in certain frequency bands. Again, it is the responsibility of the user to maintain compliance with any and all local laws and regulations.
