Ron,

Thanks for the response. However, I'm still a bit confused (a fairly 
normal state for me).   ;-)

First, maybe it is just semantics, but I personally would not call 
anything "well above the visible light frequencies" RF as the OP was 
implying.

Finally, you say "well above the visible light frequencies and part way 
through the ultra violet range".
I thought that ultra violet was -immediately- above visible blue, not 
"well above".
