Well that certainly makes more sense. I guess one question now is to what extent 5MHz for 3G systems is true for all 3G systems. I understand that the specs for various flavors of WCDMA are somewhat fluid. lurking... lurqer

Peter: "Bandwidth is the spectrum used around the center carrier frequency, 1.25MHz for our existing systems, 5MHz for 3G systems...... Hope this helps. If I'm wrong, the real experts can slap me around a little bit. Pete" Hey, is this the answer to the DDI riddle? CDMA2000 for "existing systems" and WCDMA (possibly) for "3G systems. Or CDMA2000 as an upgrade to 1.25MHz and WCDMA as the "standard" for 5MHz ? But to compound the confusion, 1XRTT is the "first phase" of third gen CDMA2000 and is an upgrade to existing 1.25 MHz CDMA IS 95 A, or B. How about someone expert commenting please. Best. Chaz PS And isn't this the key to the narrowband label for 1.25 MHz and the broadband label for 5 MHz? PPS And to compound the confusion, can't four 1.25 MHz "channels" using CDMA2000 and HDR be used within the 5 MHz "broadband" auctioned for "3 G". HELP Please !
