Abstract: Let $1<p,q<\infty$ satisfy $\frac{1}{p} + \frac{1}{q} =1.$ We construct an orthonormal basis $\{ b_n \}$ for $L^2 (\mathbb{R})$ such that $\Delta_p ( b_n )$ and $\Delta_q (\widehat{b_n})$ are both uniformly bounded in $n$. Here $\Delta_{\lambda} (f) \equiv {\rm inf}_{a \in \mathbb{R}} \left( \int \vert x - a\vert^{\lambda} \vert f(x)\vert^2 dx \right)^{\frac{1}{2}}$. This generalizes a theorem of Bourgain and is closely related to recent results on the Balian-Low theorem.
