No, that was 3.7-4.2. They used 6 and 11GHz too. I've also heard that 8GHz was in use in some places. And all that on the same antenna. Those horns are good from about 3.2GHz up to something like 13GHz IIRC. Amazing stuff for the late 50s / early 60s. Terry has a bunch of that 4GHz rigid rectangular waveguide laying around. No idea why he doesn't scrap it since it's all useless. He just doesn't like letting go of some things.

Didn't Long Lines operate there too?

I think there's a commercial licensed band around there too, but no licenses issued in forever.

IIRC, 4.2-4.9GHz is all DoD.

        FCC folks are in town looking for interference in aviation
        119.5MHz and 4.7GHz.  Who operates in 4.7? Thx
