I interpreted this stuff about birds in the following way... Its my understanding the the beam is spread. So if a bird flies into the spread beam... it will (generally) not occlude 85% of the spread beam and therefore will not interrupt the data flow. Of course, that assumes small birds relative to the beam width. Its also my guess that the beam starts out narrow and gets wider... so there's a higher chance of 85% occlusion at the narrow end of the beam. I'm not saying that Hesse's statement isn't BS... just that its not obviously (to me) complete BS... it could contain some elements of truth. Hard for me to know. Rob
