Interesting. That is where 802.11a WiFi lives but there is also a 5cm

You've got your KHz and MHz mixed up. :-)

These so called "numbers" stations have been boadcasting on shortwave
frequencies for years. Someone once used a direction finder to track
one of them down - turned out to be a restricted US Gov location in
Maryland.
