If they do what they're saying in the press and they price it right, then maybe it'll beat fixed wireless. I still don't know what they're planning to charge for it, and their engineering challenges seem rather daunting to me.  The FCC authorized 2ghz of bandwidth for the downlink.  That

Don’t rest on your laurels, -The antenna is not that big, its about 18-20 inches. -Latency is pretty low, below 70ms roundtrip -Speeds would be about 100-500 Mbps to the end user -Fade margin in not that bad with sats being close to the ground. Price of hardware will evantually come down with

Snow accumulation on a flat pizza box antenna is not going to be good. Maybe it will have a heater in it. Not sure what frequency they are at but it sure messes with K band and C band TV signals. From: Steven Kenney Sent: Friday, June 26, 2020 8:11 AM To: af Subject: Re: [AFMUG] Starlink

Well wouldn't their fade margin be calculated already to be high enough to poke through bad weather? The issue with sat internet is the upload. How many watts are they going to allow each house to broadcast to get into space? -- Steven Kenney Network Operations Manager WaveDirect

They will have trees and snow to worry about. I am sure it will not be super cheap either. People don’t like antennas on their houses (sorry wisps but I do fiber now). I am not worried, but I was not worried about Covid either... From: Steven Kenney Sent: Friday, June 26, 2020 8:03 AM To: af

This path also ran flawlessly for a number of years.  There is definitely an imperfection now that wasn't present before, and it's still eluding me. The point is they CAN have both lossless audio and error correction if they RTFM. On 6/26/2020 10:02 AM, dave wrote: I did this with couple
