Yes, I know.

But if I had simply left my brief characterization of the AN/ARC-7 as "UHF Command",
when I had just presented it as operating from 225 to 285 MHz, someone would be
pointing out that its range is actually VHF.  One can't win, even when **BOTH**
characterizations are used, which is in effect what I did to attempt not causing
heartburn.  I failed.  Mea maxima culpa.  :-)
