Thank you Sir! So from what I understand Sprint is buying out the Microwave frequencies, and Nextel is re-structuring / re-banding the 800 MHz frequencies? Is there an 800 MHz ham band?

Microwave frequencies Depends on the band. 2.0-2.2GHz is in the process of getting bought out by Sprint, so most of that equipment is worthless unless it will tune up to 2.4 GHz for use on ham. 7, 12, 24, and 36 GHz are commonly used for commercial applications 2.4, 3.4, 5.8 10 and 24 GHz are useful for amateur radio.

Is the interest level for microwave bands nil? I have some microwave parts here and consider them junk as I have not heard much about microwave communications lately.
