Hmmm. Dunno about that. It sounds like this fellow's real issue is with 12 WPM
rather than 29 MHz. (I guess I know know how that feels. But I did my 5 WPM and
declared a personal truce.) 

Once again, making something "required reading" is the kiss-of-death.   

But I *didn't* realize there was an inverse relationship between interest and
wavelength. Following that logic, Ka band must be fascinating.
