Australia's Outback Could Get Web Via TV Antenna

disco_tracy writes "Australia began switching off its analog TV signals in June and the transition to digital-only transmission is expected to be complete by the end of 2013, five years before the roll out finishes for the NBN. The leftover analog spectrum could be used to deliver Internet to people living in remote areas. Unlike 3G networks, which lose download speed with more users, the analog signal would provide a consistent speed no matter how many users there were."

It's the idea of the future!

Gentlemen, I think we've found our solution. With 4G, we need to first convert the digital signal to analog before transmission. Network congestion will be a thing of the past!

There is no such thing as continuous probabilities. Once all probabilities are determined you enter the realm of all knowledge. Having all knowledge clearly enables one to know what "is" and what "is not".
