My dad got cataracts at 50 or so. Doc told him probably from years of
welding and/or all of the crap he was exposed to in the steel mill
during the 80s.
What's the corrective procedure where they use microwave? Isn't that for
astigmatism? My eye doc told me I'd be a good candidate for that, but it
obviously isn't permanent. Meh, I just throw in contacts every day.

Toasty...
I asked my eye doctor about cataracts caused by microwave exposure.
He did some research and came up with nothing but I swear I read many
WWII radar techs got cataracts.

Wait until they discover troposcatter and modern troposcatter modems
(the US military uses them, and a few other NATO countries). You need
dual diversity dishes on each end and they have to be immense. There's
lots of old abandoned troposcatter stuff in northern Alaska and the
Yukon, Nunavut which provided remote-site radar data links to the SAGE
network.

you thought some licensed band 6 GHz stuff had a high EIRP with 8'
dishes... Imagine putting a 1200W amplifier (which is about a 4000W
electrical load, a lot is lost to heat) into the feed of a 25 foot
dish feed.

*nods* these guys have redundant networks with 80 GHz, 23\18 GHz,
11\6 GHz, fiber, diverse fiber, etc.

I know a company that was running an 80GHz link in Vegas out to
8.1 miles but if someone spit in the air in the path it went down.
This is also why they aren’t in business any more besides the
inept management.

Yup, there's a ton of HFT guys doing crazy things. 80 GHz links 10
miles long. I beleive I recall an 18 mile 23 GHz link. They really
stretch things out...
