Hi:

Freq of 3.755.00 and I also have the P3 turned on and it is reading the
same freq. Every so often (random) the Freq on the P3 will go to 0 and
then back to 3.755.00. The rest of the display is just fine with only a

Glad to see there are few more observers out there. What I saw were two

one group rotated out of view. I'm more of a deep sky observer and

Most legacy receivers are designed for 10 meters. Within this point,
this generally says the receiver gain on lower frequencies is somewhat
excessive. Plus typical of most environments, the band noise increases
as frequency decreases. Additionally, the ear has the ability to easily

Once again, a beautiful post by Bob. His description suggests a feature that

Since most DSL systems have multiple carriers, the only real distinction

"Supposed" is the key word here. Radiation occurs due to several

What you're calling "pure" fiber is FTTH -- Fiber to the Home. Once it

thing).
It costs less because they don't have to run optica
