Yes, at work we have a lightning detection system that uses freqs in the
2.7 range.
The system has a remote sensor and transmits data back to the receiver for
analysis.
By default, the system hops frequencies which is normal but during a storm
event that contains local lightning, I have seen this system stop on a fixed
channel and transmit it's data plus wait for a reply from the receiver
before it hops again.
This is between 2.69 and 2.70 GHz.
When the receiver is locked, I can actually get a rs232 output and read
supposed lightning strike values.
I'm not good at interpreting the readings yet but to answer your question,
yes I do monitor frequencies above 2.0 GHz.

So you use this scanner above 2gig?

What is the best software for the AOR 8200 MK3?

I'm familiar with Gommerts AR8200 app but have not tried it yet as I
don't have a Win98 machine handy.

Any others that are good mainly for backing up the radios contents as
well as loading new?

I'm not looking for a control app.

So far, the ones I have seen including the one from AOR do not allow any
entries above 2.0 GHz.
I do not understand why the makers can't make an adjustment that will
allow the entries above 2.0 GHz?
Even Gommert of Butel says he has no plans to support the 3.0 GHZ
coverage of the MK3 version.

So, I'm looking for any other suggestions.

Thanks Everyone!
