Excellent analysis, Mark. I learned a lot from your effort. Thanks.

As I have previously stated, not only is it evident that you "know your stuff," but also you have a remarkable ability to explain the nuances of communication technology to the layperson -- at least the technically-minded ones.

CDMA v. TDMA

I found interesting your comments as I switched from a AMPS to a CDMA/AMPS phone (Airtouch) just about a year ago. My main complaint, notwithstanding the power-saving benefits to the user & the capacity expanding benefits to the provder, is the abruptness with which CDMA can loose a signal. My analog phone was capable of holding onto to a weakening signal much longer than my CDMA phone. This is critical, especially where I live, where the terrain is rather mountainous. In contrast, I have on 1 or more occasion used a TDMA phone of a friend (AT&T), & got the impression that his phone might have a stronger ability to hold a weak signal than my CDMA phone. Don't know if this is a fact, but it has appeared so during the infrequent times I have used his phone.
