Uh, not quite. While the X Band police radars are at 10.525 GHz, the
ham band is only from 10.000 to 10.500 GHz. Plus, pulse modulation is
not allowed on the 3cm band. We CAN use MCW, phone, image, RTTY, data,
SS, and test modulations. Hmmm, I wonder about plain old vanilla CW???
I don't see it mentioned...maybe "data" covers that nowadays (and with
a bandwidth limit of 100 KHz, we could smoke along at a LOT of WPM!!).

10.525 GHz is an amateur band, and is the same band used by the X-band
radars, and transmitters are readily available for $100. Gunnplexers
are one example, but people also use modified "microwave door openers"
to experiment in X band.
