[opendtv] Re: Truthiness 2

I know very little about the procedures the Europeans followed.  I do
remember attending a broadcasting seminar at a Washington hotel where a very
good-looking Spanish woman engineer spoke about testing multipath reception
in the Pyrenees.  Remember much of Europe is mountainous.  Germany had
problems with FM/FM stereo reception, for example.

So I would suppose that multipath problems were a primary consideration for
European engineers.  It was probably a good thing that this was the case.
