Hi Hiram,

Regarding 'Huge News', trials are set for the fall. As in many aspects of life, there's many a slip from the cup to the mouth. I would be very surprised if the end product resembles what we read today.

If I am reading the article correctly the extra 250 Mhz that they find 'available' is the bottom of the spectrum that currently passes thru the co-ax unutilized because of interference with sush competing spectrum users such as garage door openers and other common devices in residential neighborhoods. TERN has had a breakthrough lately by gaining use of that 'wasted' spectrum by mean of a CDMA solution. I remain skeptical that a TDMA solution, as proposed by the article addresses the interference problem. But now I am at the limits of my comprehension of the technology and would love to have a techie pick up the conversation.

The SLC experiment is an admission that the prior HFC architecture was far too liberal with applying subscribers to the system. I believe we will necessarily see systems evolve toward the SLC concept. I glad that there has been a way to develop this in a cost-effective manner. (If we are to believe the press report.)

Best, Ray
