Narrow bandwidth? I don't call a bandwidth of nearly 2GHz narrow.

Don't these things tend to be measured in octaves, as it were?


** Bandwidth in *electronics* is normally quoted in Hz, kHz, MHz, GHz etc.

Octaves are a musical notion, so not used much outside of audio and
acoustics.

An octave is a doubling of the frequency, so it has logarithmic
implications.
