[BC] MCI Microwave services

In the early 80's I did a lot of C band dish installations at radio and TV
stations, and in the Carriebean and Central America.  I ran into C band
Telco interference a lot.  Found out that moving a dish just a few feet can
make a tremendous difference.  Many times going from unintelibable to no
interference at all.  Lucky here, AT&T long lines decommissioned those 4 gig
links many years ago, and sold off the sites.  I tried to buy one here, but
it had contamination issues that I didnt want to take on.  Would have made a
great ham station.

My gut  instinct tells me that getting the MCI carriers turned off is not
really  an option.

The MCI System will probably be FCC Licensed and had proper coordination
when filed.

Like the early TV downlinks that were licensed,  if local interference
occurred after their installation the new signal was required to fix the
licensed
downlink's problem.
