images of naked women into space.
Yes, without aggresive notch filtering, it emliminates radio service in the
area. Once filtered, it's much less effective at delivering said images.

I got DSL (and cable, incidentally, became available) two years ago.
Till then it was dialup or statelite. which wasn't gonna happen since
I don't watch the rot on TV much.
AT&T is upgrading hard wiring for DSL fairly fast, but it's spotty

Start the year off right.
Marshall,
Verizon is rolling out the FioS not for phone or internet, but to be
able to push TV. That is where the real cash is for them since the
phone and internet side are too heavily regulated for a profit.

Having worked at a company that makes telecom equipment I disagree.
With DSL, the bandwidth to the 'telco equipment' is all yours. After
that it is shared. The cable company

It's all a matter of features, service, and what you already have. If
you already have an analog phone line, and no cable, it doesn't make
sense to get the cable run just for Internet access. If you are using
cable for TV and your phone service, don't get DSL just for Internet
