Hello, Warin, a couple of quick, non-exhaustive, notes on antenna use (or is it /usage/?) even if I'm still doubtful we should map with such detail:
* amateur_radio: antenna systems used by *licensed *radio amateurs * transponder: I think they are mostly used on *mobile *systems (/unmappable.../). Is there any fixed transponder? What used for? Probably just very few fixed AIS station. Make it specific, use=AIS (as wifi is specific compared to the generic "digital communication") * radar: definition is "RAdio Detection And Ranging" * radio: make it specific, broadcast_radio * gps: hardly noticeable. They normally are the size of small cup or a table dish at most... missing use: * navaid: VOR, LORAN (/I//think there are still some LORAN antenna around, probably disused, but conspicuous/), etc. * trunked_radio (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trunked_radio_system) * WiMax (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WiMAX) missing key: * band=ELF|SLF|VLF|LF|MF|HF|UHF|SHF|EHF|THF ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_spectrum) please don't: * frequency=* as: A) we probably don't know what they are. B) there are probably many used. C) Even if we know it is better not to tell. please note: * Advise that in many countries you could probably get some serious jail for tagging this stuff. Cheers!
