Hi Jerry & all

Are you saying that there are parts of cars or wire fences that resonate at
20 GHz or are we talking 'rusty bolt effect'?

I have not tried it, but I have considered it... and I was rather hoping
that spurious returns would be very few and far between.

My reason for choosing 10 Ghz for transmit is that I have home built
equipment (made out of WWII radar parts) and the requisite licence to use
it.

IFF type identification would not be required in my case as the hives and
parts are all heavily and obviously branded.
