WISPS unite. It's time to start sending packets over them airwaves! :) Why they don't abolish broadcast tv/radio and move to a pure IP based solution I don't know. It would stimulate the economy. IPTV could just as easy be IP radio. :) Jack Unger wrote: Anyone who even suspects that they might want to set up a TV White Space WAN someday should start following the news about digital television (DTV).

Re: [WISPA] DTV Arrives but Transition Continues
Charles, You are evidently in a IP rich environment(based on your statement:and move to a pure IP based solution. We still do good here to get a nice unfettered stream of you-tube. Just saw today that LG is including all their TV's with Netflix built in! I am in one of those supposedly digital divide areas and I can say that there is not enough bandwidth here to support no more than 10 high def you-tube videos within 30 miles, no matter which carrier you choose. Don't get me wrong, I am all for this White Space hype. It will hep me tremendously more than you guys in the big cities. The BIG boys are fighting this stuff tooth and nail so far, so it will be interesting how it fills out.

I should have said internet technology based solution. The carriers are using IPTV to deliver TV now. Over fiber for the most part. We still do good here to get a nice unfettered stream of you-tube. Just saw today that LG is including all their TV's with Netflix built in! I am in one of those supposedly digital divide areas and I can say that there is not enough bandwidth here to support no more than 10 high def you-tube videos within 30 miles, no matter which carrier you choose. Hmmm. Interesting. Well perhaps a wifi/wimax/whitespaces solution utilzing massive amounts of spectrum (*cough*700 mhz block sold to $bigtelcos *cough*) will deliver enough bandwidth? How much spectrum does tv/radio take up now? I may be crazy, who knows? :) I'm just curious as to whether spectrum efficiency gains could be had by changing over to IP delivery in the tv/radio s Don't get me wrong, I am all for this White Space hype. It will hep me tremendously more than you guys in the big cities. The BIG boys are fighting this stuff tooth and nail so far, so it will be interesting how it fills out. Of course they are. This is what they do. It's all they know how to do. WISPA Wants You!
