Sad to hear that, Bob. =20 I am hoping someone can tell me why the DVB receivers are cheaper, = easier to build. I have a basic understanding of both 8vsb and COFDM, and they = both seem pretty complex to me. COFDM with it's thousands of seperate = channels to detect, demux into one with all those packets to identify, delay and = put back in order, wow, seems like a TALL order to me. I wonder how big the part patent issues play in this.
