Patrice Thanks for information about FCC renewal. The last time I checked the FCC web page on amateur radio you could not renew. But that was about 6 months ago. If that is true that would be great! I know that everyone on this thread would probably like it if we could access all government stuff on the web. It would save the government a fortune not to mention make it easier for all of us! I live in a rural area about 25 miles NE of Seattle. Unfortunately the cable system drop is about 1200' away. I never liked cable very much, the signal is poor compared to a good, clean direct off air pickup (thats the ol broadcast engineer in me!) So instead I have a ten foot dish and pick up K and C band direct off the Satelites. CNBC comes to me that way. The picture looks like it just came out of the studio camera. I'm still looking for good internet access off the satelite in lieu of cable....Anyone got an idea? Cable modems are going to sell like hot cakes once they reach critical mass. If I remember the last time I looked at the broadcasting stats, cable drops are available at more than 89% of homes in the US. The pressure is on the cable companies to excute. They could make "a lot of money" and turn the tide vs DBS. Eric
