It's 6.875 - 7.125 and max bandwidth is 25 MHz. Unfortunately, most congested 
areas are unavailable.

7/8 has smaller channels though, right?

re: 8GHz, there's plenty out there in the 7/8 GHz band for FDD...  It used to 
be restricted to AM/FM/VHF and UHF TV broadcasters. Now it's not, in a big part 
of the US.  See:

http://www.comsearch.com/newsletter/WirelessPulse.html

Less availability of equipment than the regular 6 and 11 GHz bands, however.

7 through 9 GHz is also used for NATO (X-band) two way satellite stuff, the 
BUCs are very similar to large C-band BUCs for models in the 20W to 400W range.

You thought your EIRP and path loss was high, try putting 400W Tx (consumes 
about 2400W electrical load) into a 37dB gain dish.

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
