A new reference book for all of you I highly recommend:
Annabel Z. Dodd's
The Essential Guide to Telecommunications, Fourth Edition
It is described in detail at http://telecom-digest.org/doddbook.html
and it can also be ordered direct from the publisher, Prentice Hall.
http://www.phptr.com/title/0131487256 is a detailed description of the
book, and chapter 1 has been placed on line here in .pdf format.
Ms. Dodd is a professor of telecommunications in the Boston area, and
she has been on the Digest mailing list for a long time, and I under-
stand will be contributing to our discussions here from time to time.
Please check out her credentials at
http://telecom-digest.org/doddbook.html then also check out her
web site and welcome her to our discussions.

[TELECOM Digest Editor's Note: What exactly is supposed to be
'wireless video'? Isn't that just a wireless cam (such as I
have a couple of) one for the back yard birds and one for my
weather station http://weatherforecast.us.tf or is it something
a bit more elegant and fancy? My cameras and the associated base
stations only cost about a hundred dollars each, with a range of
a couple hundred feet or so. PAT]
