Clark, if the satellite is beaming its signal (Animal House, say) at a movie theater near you, then I guess that qualifies as "point to point" communication and I take it the point of your post was that in that particular environment CDMA does not provide any particular advantage(s). Correct?
However, when the topic is satellite telephony a la Globalstar, then I assume we have signals going all over cyberspace and in that case CDMA works its magic, i.e., provides greater spectral efficiency [and causes Iridium's stock price to fall off a cliff]. How am I doing? Best, Mike Doyle
