TXN: Could not find an absolute number breakdown, perhaps for competitive reasons. Recently I asked my computer guy advice about using a digital cellphone as a modem for my laptop. Guy sent me to a truckstop to do research. It appears that many truckers have been using such setups(analog and digital) for years to keep in touch with head office. The most important advice each trucker gave me, was where the holes in the signals are,...that is where they get away from head office badgering (gggggggggg). As it turns out, the areas of poor reception (digital and analog) are numerous and frequent,...and surprisingly big cities have numerous gaps in their interiors. Of course, the thread probably knows all this, but I didn't. So the next time you see a tractor trailer parked on the road,...maybe that's a "no signal" area ;-) Now I need a map of all the digital cellphone transmitter locations in North America,...so I know how to plan my driving routes and stops, to get the strongest signals when attempting to connect to the internet with my new setup. In North America it seems,...that little twisted copper pair can still be found in a lot of places where those fancy wireless digital information carrying, electromagnetic spectrum waves aren't.
