What frequencies do these run on? No, I don't want to try and decode them, I just wonder what band they're on. (900 Mhz area? S-band microwave?) This (radio for local loops) is one of those "obvious" things that the FCC sat on for years, so I'm glad to see that there are finally frequencies allocated to it. fred
