engineer,

If I use my cordless phone right next to my Ricochet modem, I do get some interference on the phone, but the Ricochet has never been affected. I think Ricochet modems frequency hop within the 902-928 MHz spectrum, and they use 162 channels to hop around within this 26 MHz bandwidth. The existing Ricochet network is very robust, I've never been dropped, and I log on instantly every time.

OT: Aren't you the one who ate the live squid sashimi when you were in Korea? I tried that too last time I was in Korea. Isn't it gross when they cut off the tentacles, and they wiggle all over your plate? Then when you swallow it it's still slithering around all the way down your throat.
