Re: [SOCALWUG] Parkervision cards

Here's how...

My first thought was "voodo" or something - but thinking about it, it still 
seems like some kind of magic!

The ability to turn multi-path into multi-good-path seems kinda...weird.

Actually, at least with Airgo's MIMO technology (Belkin/SOHOWare), a MIMO 
PCMCIA card will get better range than a standard 802.11g card when 
connecting to a standard 802.11g AP.  Same when using a MIMO AP with a 
standard card vs a standard AP with a standard card.

Humphrey,
This is the best card I have in my whole pile. Wouldn't trade it for
anything else.
It blew me away. You have to combine with their AP/Router
to really see
what it can do. Impressive.
Of course you do.   If the card sends MIMO to an ordinary AP, the AP
will only 'see' (hear?) garbage, and visa versa.
Now then, tell us how you get 3X range in a LOS environment, and ...
"3X compared to what, and in what type of environment, and at
what throughput/rate?"
Its MIMO, not Magic.

Hello,
Anyone have experience with the Parkervision wifi cards?
They claim no
deadspots in your house, etc etc.
We thought it was voodoo, so we asked for a review unit... I'll be
damned I
get triple the range.  I'll try a wardrive today with the card.
