I don't think there is anything 'wrong' in saying "operates in the 2GHz spectrum". Saying 2.4GHz in documentation seems like it might be a good idea as it's more common usage, but it seems wrong to say "2.4GHz spectrum", it seems like "2.4GHz band" would make more sense if doing this. (But then mixing 'band' and 'spectrum' would also be weird so the references to 5GHz would need changing to 'bands' (not 'band' there as there are 3 non-continuous ranges). Is it worth it? I don't know.
