| White space
The White space is there for a reason. To eliminate interference and crosstalk between the channels. If you put data in that band you will cause interference. Even with the improvements in digital. The same thing could be done by smashing the channels together and put all the "white space" at the end or beginning of the band. To help eliminate crosstalk between the TV and data bands but you still may get crosstalk in the TV band between channels especially if you live close to a transmitter. But you would have to reprogram all the digital receivers if you smashed the channels together as opposed to programming the data receivers to use separate channels within the different spaces in the tv channels. -- William Ruckman »ruckman.net

join:2006-10-26 Worcester, MA | as the demand on the finite spectrum increases these 'white spaces' (however it is defined or found) will be used. there is a lot of research going on concerning using these 'white spaces' and WILL continue and increase as time moves forward. |

| It WILL continue, but that doesn't mean that it ultimately WILL happen.
Unless, of course, you're from the future, and connecting to our dimension via white space. -- The goal of the broadcast engineer is to get all the meters on the transmitter to go as far to the right as possible!! |
