Yep 'Arry & Surf, Picture in your mind ... an ol' New England Yank, a-standin on the deck of the Caribou and takin' in the "moonscape view" of Channel-Port-auxBasques.

Yes we did end that first leg of our initial trip at
Rose Blanch, to see the restoration of the stone lighthouse
there.
The gentleman, who climbed up the grade from his house
to greet us ... explained that some of the "byes" had a bit
too much to drink ... and backed over the light house sign.

During our conversation, I asked him "what do people do in Rose Blanche ?" His reply ... "Nuthin'" .

We did vist the ferry facility at Diamond Cove (I believe),
to discover that we had missed the last trip of the day,

but "you may hitch a ride on the Mail Boat", and "someone
will always offer you a place to stay for the night."

Indeed there are about 8 communities which depend solely
on this service for their lifeline to the outside world.

I am still amazed when I read the intellectual words,
of the US West Coast academics ....
who naively insist ...
that V-OFDM ... with it's two widely spaced antenna towers, and its (100 pounds or so) of rack mounted paraphernalia,

would ever be seriously considered as an alternative to Wi-Lan's Hopper or W-OFDM products.

These are just a tiny sample (living proofs) of a major
need for the Wi-Lan alternative.

We are looking forward to our Spring visit to the Rock.

Nippers Harbor, on the Baye Verte Peninsula, is at the
top of my personal list.

Wonder if we'll see Hopper equipment at the new Guv'mint Wharf , as well ?

Oh, BTW , for a "Must Read" for all Canadians & Open Minded
Yanks ....

I hope to visit the Caribou monument at Port aux Basques.

Best to All,
Mardy.

This presentation will give a brief overview of spread spectrum radio technology and the benefits it presents to customers requiring secure, reliable and cost effective data communications.

The paper will present the criteria for the successful deployment of a point-to-point and point-to-multipoint networks including RF path analysis, transmission equipment and radio configuration.

The paper will review two successful network installations. The first a MAN for the city of Mount Pearl configured in a point-to-multipoint private network. The second a point-to-mulitpoint interconnected to a point-to-point and serving multiple clients with a diversity of services including connection to a satellite earth station.
