Fixed Paths.  A database of 13 GHz fixed paths is on the NYCMAFCC website.  This site is password protected.  If you have forgotten your password, contact John Neuhaus.  New paths should be coordinated within the NYCMAFCC.

Portable Paths.  Unlike the ENG bands, there are no channel coordinators.  Contact 
Leo Rosenberg for coordination of portable, temporary paths.

 Channel Coordinators.  There is a separate page for each band.  The information for each channel includes primary and secondary coordinators, center frequency, and notes.  In most instances the notes will refer to fixed paths on that channel where special caution should be taken to avoid possible interference.

   Panic List.  This is an emergency contact list for all companies operating in the ENG microwave bands.  Companies include both broadcasters and service providers.

Most users have indicated a particular phone number that should be called first.  These are indicated in bold type.

The list is quite extensive and may take a few seconds to download and display.  It is suggested that users bookmark this page to allow for faster access when needed.

The list is continuously updated as changes are reported.  The small date for each company indicates when its record was last updated.

Major Events.  As planning for microwave use for major events develops, separate pages will appear on this site to facilitate coordination.

Information.  For further information, inquiries, or to update station/company information, please contact Leo Rosenberg at
