These days, I think Jay likes counting his money (like Scrooge McDuck), thanks to owning a tower down the street from the CBOE data center.
He sold the tower I’m on to Vertical Bridge. From: Mike Hammett Sent: Tuesday, September 22, 2015 9:27 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [AFMUG] 4700 MHz band and FAA Okay. All I remembered was 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. On 9/22/2015 8:55 PM, Mike Hammett wrote: Didn't Long Lines operate there too?
