it seems to me you make a fair share of assumptions on behalf of the GSM network which are most likely not valid. GSM is split into multiple channels, some of which are used for signalling. i _think_ it is impossible to be available on the channel posing as two devices at the same time using only one radio. but then again if the allowed idle time on the signalling channel is large enough for the phone to be able to switch among the multiple frequency bands.... that would mean it is actually simpler to get it to work with two different networks... ..but thats only wild speculation. You really should checkout the GSM specifications for that type of information - http://www.3gpp.org/ appears to carry many of these. last but not least, non of this is feasible through the highlevel AT-command interface of the TI chip on the Neo. > > Well, I think this is getting OT for this list, isn't it? you bet - but then, what would be more appropriate? > > Regards, > Torsten > best of luck Thilo
