There's an allocation for "radiolocation" from 3.1-3.3. There's shared 
radiolocation from 3.0 to 3.65; The ham band is 3.3-3.5 in regions 2 and 
3, and 3.4-3.475 in region 1.

FINDER typically works in the lower end of the band.

You too can build a FINDER, at least the microwave sensor part, for 
under $100 in parts.

Isn't it about towers, and there are sure a bunch of VHF,UHF, and 
microwave ham antennas on towers...
