On my Icom R20, I don't think I've ever gotten anything but data bursts
above 1GHz. I certainly don't think I've picked up any cordless phones
above 924MHz.

Oh well, hunting for the signal is at least half the fun.

I'm thinking of getting an Icom IC-R8500 instead of the much more
expensive
AOR AR5000 +3. So what will I miss between 2 GHz and 3GHz that is only
covered by the AOR?

Cheers,
