Sorry so long to reply, Doug. Here is a pdf link to the paper. Thanks again 
Les, for bring this to everyone's attention:

   Hi.  Where can I get a copy of this article?  When I was taking dsp 
courses in grad school in the late 70's, some of our exam questions involved 
writing programs to implement various strange forms of fft algorithms, such 
as an algorithm for powers of three.  Of course, the standard fft algorithm 
obtains computational speed using arrays of 1024, 2048, etc.  I thought the 
speed of computation had been maximized and analyzed to death, so I'm very 
interested in this article.

Fascinating article on how an MIT breakthrough could speed up Fast
Fourier Transforms (FFT) calculations by X10. For those of us interested 
in

communications, FFT has made possible the creation of Software Defined
Radios (SDR), moonbounce communications with small antennas, and low
power, and
countless other innovations.

Imagine if you could work moonbounce at exciter power levels using a
small Yagi, or if you could purchase an SDR USB key that would offer
performance far
exceeding that of a Drake R8B? It's all within the realm of possibility
within the next few years.
