note - SOME phones do not use this

I checked - they use spread spectrum technology plus channel keying -- you should not have any problems unless they were almost touching ..

Hello,

So is that essentially "AUTO SWITCHING" then??? To pick the next clean channel????

no - two things --

How Spread Spectrum Works

Spread Spectrum uses wide band, noise-like signals. Because Spread Spectrum signals are noise-like, they are hard to detect. Spread Spectrum signals are also hard to Intercept or demodulate. Further, Spread Spectrum signals are harder to jam (interfere with) than narrowband signals. These Low Probability of Intercept (LPI) and anti-jam (AJ) features are why the military has used Spread Spectrum for so many years. Spread signals are intentionally made to be much wider band than the information they are carrying to make them more noise-like.

Spread Spectrum signals use fast codes that run many times the information bandwidth or data rate. These special "Spreading" codes are called "Pseudo Random" or "Pseudo Noise" codes. They are called "Pseudo" because they are not real gaussian noise.

Spread Spectrum transmitters use similar transmit power levels to narrow band transmitters. Because Spread Spectrum signals are so wide, they transmit at a much lower spectral power density, measured in Watts per Hertz, than narrowband transmitters. This lower transmitted power density characteristic gives spread signals a big plus. Spread and narrow band signals can occupy the same band, with little or no interference. This capability is the main reason for all the interest in Spread Spectrum today.

Channels are simply to be thought of as keys -- that way more than one device can be on the same freq but without the right "key" - it is ignored

Hello,

Ok thanks BJ_M - I think I got it......

Kevin

[BJ_M]

Don't quote me on the above -- there are several people here that know a lot more about this stuff ..

when i was in the military -- all we were taught was basicly how to key the mic without getting our head shot off ..

Hello,

How do we know???? BJ_M could be the headless horsemen.....

Kevin

(no offense BJ_M )

[BJ_M]

my wife is convinced my head WAS shot off and not completely re-attached ..

Hello,



Or maybe a few "loose screws" huh???

Kevin

[Noahtuck]

ok, here is my hovel,
Living room, simplicity at it's best:
54" T.V.
vcr, Panny DVD recorder, dvd player, 5.1/dts rec., LD/DVD player (all pioneer of course)
The table next to the couch is a self powered sub that has a black acrylic top and i had a glass shop make a mirrored smoked bronzed top for it so the acrylic did'nt get scratched, and it looks better anyways


PS2, Dreamcast & YES!!! a Super Nintendo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Boogerman is one of my fav's :P


The bedroom:
JVC S-VHS, 5-Disc cd changer, 5.1/DTS rec., dvd & PSX W/Powered sub in the closet.

Excuse the wires but only 2 people see it in there and it's usually dark :P

Music room: just for hanging and listening to tunes!!!!
5 disc sacd/dvd player, 10 band graphic EQ, 5.1/DTS rec., 101 cd changer, cassette player, & powered sub.



M.R. under the black light




I would post my son's system but i'm not allowed in his room let alone take photo's

Here is the mess i surf on here in

But i only have a 4 channel sound card on my main pc

Hello,

Noahtuck - Nice setup

But HOW DARE YOU GET US BACK ON TOPIC! :P :P :P

Hello,



Self TORTURE!

Nice Noah...but where's the Xbox?

[BJ_M]

shrooms poster !

[yoda313]

Nice Noah...but where's the Xbox?

Hello,

You know not everyone has to own a XBOX

Though if you own one 128bit system why not 3???? (though I only have an XBOX and no Ps2 or GC....)

Kevin

[Noahtuck]

Nice Noah...but where's the Xbox?

Uh oh!!!!!!!

shrooms poster !

It was the only thing i could find that looked cool for the black light in a mirror..... have not touched anything like that in 20 years 8)
And if ya think that is nice.... ya should see my Popeye & olive oyle B.L. poster

And i gave up on nintendo with the N64

Hello,

Here it is:



Just thought I'd show you how crowded the rear of the Stereo is!

Kevin

Yoda..... is that masking tape i see on some wire's there ??

And now i'm gonna have to take a photo of the back of my system's to show you what crowded is :P

[yoda313]

Hello,

Yoda..... is that masking tape i see on some wire's there ??

Umm... Yeah i think - it's probably to label which speaker it goes too.....

Kevin

[Noahtuck]

Kevin

It looked like it... i have to do that when i move anything cause i have so many damn wires!!!!!!!!! masking tape and a pen on all the wire's

[pyrate83]

It's the only way really.

...he forgot one then

you overlooked the stack of playboys on my desk....
just to the left and below the pic you zeroed in on

[BJ_M]

now we know why the screen looks all smeared :P

[Xylob the Destroyer]

yeah, i was thinking of you sweet thing!

what's up with all the X-BOX fanboyz??
I wish I still had room for all my consoles, most have been relegated to the cupboard under the rear-right channel now and have to be used with the TV's front A/V inputs
even worse, the NES down there between the PS2 and the GC has to be connected via RFU because it's video out is shot
SNES = still the coolest sytem ever!
