But these operations are currently one-way, no? I suppose the cost to get these to two-way could be subtracted. I agree that valuations should likely be higher than October, but according to trans' recent account of the current LMDS auction, they aren't.

And how cheap and available is the MMDS two-way equipment? If it's cheaper than $4-6K for PMP, it's pretty darn cheap. And are the BERs for MMDS better than LMDS as well, or is some of that efficiency traded off for error correction (I would guess that the MMDS BERs are better IN ADDITION to allowing more efficient algorithms, but would enjoy hearing whatever details about any of this you would have time for)

thanks as always Bernard (and appreciate your valuable input here!)

Steve
