Heinrich Hertz' initial experiments were in the microwave spectrum but Marconi ended up going for longer and longer waves. By the time wireless communications became commercial anything shorter than 200m was considered unusable. As a result hams were forced into that spectrum. But experimentation showed it was in many ways more usable than the long waves. I am not sure why I would want to operate at 600m tho'. -- Brian Lloyd, WB6RQN/J79BPL 3191 Western Dr. Cameron Park, CA 95682 br...@lloyd.com +1.767.617.1365 (Dominica) +1.916.877.5067 (USA) _______________________________________________ FlexRadio Systems Mailing List FlexRadio@flex-radio.biz http://mail.flex-radio.biz/mailman/listinfo/flexradio_flex-radio.biz Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexradio%40flex-radio.biz/ Knowledge Base: http://kc.flexradio.com/ Homepage: http://www.flexradio.com/
