bladeRF calibration for yatebts/openbts

Hello,
published bladeRF for calibration isn't good for dummies at all.
What's the best way to calibrate bladerf in order to use YateBTS ?
like:
1. bladeRF-cli -i
2. set rxvga2 27
3. set rxvga1 25
4. set txvga2 -14
5. set txvga1 0
4. cal table dc rx 1841.6M 1842M 1000
5. cal table dc tx 1841.6M 1842M 1000

like this?
or it should be standard cal table dc tx/rx without freq ?

You can get quite a bit more transmit power output by setting txvga1 and txvga2 higher. For the best linearity, I suggest:

txvga1 = -8

txvga2 = 20
