Thus sounds interesting. Googling however has failed me. Can anybody

I suspect this is related to high-speed trading in the stock, bond and
futures markets.  A number of large financial institutions have
noted that
there are brief differences in the prices of various financial
instruments

between the various markets -- for example, NY and Chicago. If they can
act fast enough, they can buy in the cheaper market and sell at a
profit in

the more expensive market before the differences iron themselves out.
These institutions have invested a lot in high-speed internet
connections

between their offices physically near the various markets so they can
exploit these differences.  Looks like someone is going to try to speed
things up by using a SW radio link.  Note that the FCC applications
were

filed with a request for confidential treatment of certain details.
