Hi Eric, Thanks for the excellent summary of the application, installation process. Would you please post the URL for the license application announcements. What do you make of ACRO's attempts to develop turnkey operations? (I read what sounded like a tentative foray into this type of combination somewhere, but I can't currently locate it.) It seems like this may be an important key to develop some longer term clients, particularly those that want the convenience of having someone else manage the technology for them. Re:When GSX, HRS, ans STM has their fill (or is full) ACRO will have its day. What makes you think that their appetite is quenchable? Bob

Eric, > You can generally figure out the transmitter company > from the application based on the antenna type as both > Harris and General Signal have proprietary antenna types >- it's hard to discern the transmitter behind Andrew antennas. Ther shouldn't be anything proprietary that eliminates any transmitter from any given antenna. The correlation will be more due to the systems consultant/designer who will use the antenna manufacturer that he has either experience or a contract with to push. Harris will of course want to use their own. If you look at: fcc.gov you'll see that there are a lot of antenna manufacturers. ACRO's own link page lists at least three as companies they "like to do business with", Jampro, Dielectric (GSX), and Andrew. The CES show next week will be the official rollout of DTV for consumers, with all of the big CE outfits showing off new sets. This would be perfect timing for announcing an ACRO digital sale. Don
