[opendtv] Re: Italian mobile TV provider has signals covered

We were using a 100 Watt R&S (very proper) transmitter with an ERP of one
kW. The height and power were dictated by the FCC since we were using an
experimental license.
If we had been on a mountain in the desert would the results have been more
to your liking?

We were in the worst RF environment in the world at a very low height and
very low power and in a market that we wanted to use it in. Seemed
reasonable to us. Seemed like a real test in real world conditions. And it
worked very well.

Lots of people saw the demo. Lots more could have. Was disapointed that no
one from this list showed up.
