Which works fine for the purposes of this discussion - a good solution.
However, there is an unfortunate consequence - anyone wishing to perform
propagation analysis is screwed, because one end of the path is now unknown.
I'm not saying I do this sort of propagation analysis, but isn't that a
rather important part of our justification for "jamming" the bands
periodically?

but I don't feel like walking over there to do it.'
