Back around 1980 when I worked with NJ Public TV we had some beast of a
piece of surplus gear used to send video on long remotes. Can't recall if
it was S band or X band for sure. I think S band. All I ever did was
hump it into the van and send the engineers away while I went to the
transmitter site to steer the antenna to find them. I think it had about a
6 foot dish that was in several sections. That would have been difficult
to point at X band, and it might have been mesh, which would not have flown
on X band either. It was a major pain, think they said it was illegal,
and it only got used on the longest hauls.
