While 900 is not used in the USA for mobile phone, it is used by some
carriers. Nextel holds licenses there and Cingular Wireless Data operates in
the 900 MHz SMR band, 896-902 and 935-940 MHz.

900 and 1800 MHz are not used in the USA. Several sites do use 2.1, 2.4, 5.6
and
5.8 GHz for microwave connections from the cell sites to the switching
centers.

73!
