Abstract
This paper describes briefly the Western Electric type TJ microwave Radio System designed for operation in the 10.7 to ll.7-kMc frequency allocation, and covers the performance of this system since it was placed in service across Chesapeake Bay on February 1, 1959. This is the first TJ system to be placed in service in the territory of The Chesapeake and Potomac Telephone Company of Virginia, and operates between Hampton and Kiptopeke, Va., a distance of 22.5 statute miles. The over-water portion of this path has a length of 18.5 miles.
