Jason; <<What confuses me is how you can correctly identify the need for fundamentals, earnings, etc. and then be surprised by the sudden drop in Winstar.>> My comments on TA and the drop was directed at the market and the correction and not Winstar. As far as WCII goes, I expected it to lose money as it builds and it is. You don't expect the company to build AND have positive earnings this soon do you ? ac

<..Isn't a company with negative net worth and not even positive EBITDA forecasted for another year by definition the most extended?..> After already burdening the thread with dozens of posts making the same unidimensional 'point', you seem compelled to continue echoing this selfsame informationally trivial message. As a result, your apparent ignorance of the telecommunications industry, the emerging datacom-telecom convergence and the importance of bandwidth enabling access technologies, is palpable. And while the fact that stocks without earnings or positive cashflows will likely retreat more than others in uncertain markets may be continually remarkable to you, I assure you it is not to most of us. In short, I fail to find your often repeated 'message' here adding anything of substance or interest. ------ Bow - glad to contribute and ditto to you and others; Bernard- haven't seen anything specific on this, but one guess is that Lim's 'CAMA' is some form of forward error correction coding (convolution being a common FEC code, as you know) which exploits the SNR resolving properties of a multisignal/multipath high order ambiguity function. Melvyl INS offered a number of potentially relevant references - such as the following: Porat, B.; Friedlander, B.
