[opendtv] Re: LG launches 6th gen ATSC digital TV broadcast receiver chipset

No?  Here's the direct quote from the article:

"At the National Association of Broadcasters Convention here
this week, Dr. Choon Lee, vice president and head of the LG
Electronics Digital TV Research Lab, explained that the chipset
employs an exclusive algorithm that enhances reception and
eliminates multipath interference common in urban areas."

What part of "eliminates multipath interference" do you have
trouble understanding?

First off, the direct quote I supplied was also in that article, and it was reasonable. Secondly, "eliminated multipath interference common in urban areas" is not the same as "once and for all solves all possible multipath problems." The quote simply tells us that the interference encountered usually in urban areas has been addressed.

And lastly, in your own experience, I would think this is not something that should sound so hyped up. After all, you have witnessed in your own unique circumstances that a 5th gen DEMOD, as opposed to other components of a receiver, was indeed enough to manage the multipath. Which means that anything better than that, in terms of EQUALIZER PERFORMANCE, is likely to do at least as well. Tuner issues are another matter, but tuners don't seem to follow the same informal generation numbering scheme.
