IMHO twice the number of timeslots qualifies for saying "more efficiently using the available timeslots" :) But thanks for this clarification. My impression so far was that AMR on TCH/H has fair enough quality that the voice call experience isn't noticeably different to TCH/F and "everyone is using it anyways"...? Also how do "people use" TCH/F? Is it a choice the MS user is able to make? Or is this always a choice on the CN side? ~N -- - Neels Hofmeyr <[email protected]> http://www.sysmocom.de/ ======================================================================= * sysmocom - systems for mobile communications GmbH * Alt-Moabit 93 * 10559 Berlin, Germany * Sitz / Registered office: Berlin, HRB 134158 B * Geschäftsführer / Managing Directors: Harald Welte
