I would suggest, that unless you want to incur the wrath of an operator
with an effective radiated power high enough to boil water at 100 paces,
that you check for local Earth-Moon-Earth and satellite operations by
amateur radio operators.  They have (I believe) primary access to these
frequencies (the 420 to 450 MHz. 70 cm. band).  Their is also military
radar that operates in parts of that band.
