Guest guest Posted September 22, 2011 Report Share Posted September 22, 2011 What does that do to the signal? More powerful? Does it arc or spike?  Thanks Marc !  Loni From: Marc <marc@...> Subject: Re: Bandwidth speeds Date: Wednesday, September 21, 2011, 7:18 PM  > These new phones download 29 Mbps & upload 11 mbps.

If the analogy is correct that analog RF is like a strong wind, up to hurricane for higher Watts being pumped out. And Digital RF is like a jackhammer, which one would cause the more damage? Imagine a field of grass blowing in the wind. It bends, but does not break. Then subject the same field to winds that alternate back and forth at 10 times per second. How much breakage can you imagine? Then up the frequency to 700 MHz, millions if not hundreds of millions of pulses per second. This is (likely) the mechanism that breaks DNA. This is why digital is worse than analog. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
