That is the same question I have been asking my self.
Maybe we could take a 2.4GHz (or 5.8) soft radio and turn it into a
debugging/development tool I.E. create our own handset/base station combo
while that is possible (implementing the radio modem for the MS and e.g.
running OsmocomBB on top) - what is the purpose?
If you want simulation with custom implementations for both sides, you can
skip the radio link altogether and simply tunnel Um over UDP between a virtual
BTS and a virtual MS.
The point of running a real Um interface on the air is to use existing
telephones 'as-is'. And then you have to operate in the bands they support.
