Perhaps you meant 'different'. Anyway, you seem to have fixed it so many
thanks.

No - you need to use one which conforms.

You included some overseas FM systems in your questions. Not having
experience of them I can't say.


I am at a complete loss as to how your experience or lack of experience
with FM systems in other countries has bearing on answering the question


"What in YOUR opinion, is the best available form of transmission
system?"


since you have already categorically stated that FM is not the best
available form of transmission system.


Would you now please answer the question?


No. Since you are obviously looking for an particular answer to allow you
to troll some more.

Not quite sure why you want 'my' opinion since you already know I think FM
less than perfect. If you really want to know the best current system try
them all and draw your own conclusions.

Nice to see you've reverted to form language wise. Thought it was too good

Born out of sheer frustration with your seemingly mostly complete inability
to understand what's written.

It was pointed at the court, one half of which was burnt out and the
other half in deep shadow. The operatives failed to expose the camera
correctly to be able to see where the ball was when it was at the bright
end.


Taken you long enough to think this one up.


Crap. Go and read the original post where I stated that they didn't seem
to be operating the controls forcefully enough.

Or you singularly failed to make things clear.


Ah, so it's my fault. You blame your comprehension problems on me.
Perhaps you do it deliberately so you can fill your days with Usenet
drivel rather than work.

Not at all. Your attempts at labeling somebody a troll who asks you to
provide substantiation of your remarks is disingenuous.

FM less than perfect.


You state that "FM is not state of the art" but refuse to say what you
consider to be state of the art.

You state that you did not say that FM in the UKofGB&NI is not as good
as other countries, but then you go on to say that you have no experience
of FM in other countries.

It is left as an exercise for other readers of this newsgroup to draw
their own conclusions on your unsubstantiated pronouncements on this
and other topics.

Yours is broken. The '' should be at the start of a line. Like everyone
else's posts on here And you are obviously ashamed of it since your
headers don't say what it is.
But of course yours will be correct and all the others wrong...

is not the state of the art when it comes to transmission systems


I think the misunderstanding arises because my inquiry was with regard
to comparing FM transmission in say the UKofGB&NI and Germany or USoFA,
in other words is the FM transmission quality better elswhere.


I haven't a clue.

Therefore will you please state what, in your opinion, is the best form
of transmission system currently available?


That would depend on what data rate is used. DAB is capable of beating FM
hands down at a decent one.


Yes of course in Balham;!..

On that point I would think everyone is agreed except the diehard
"analogistas".

Agreed, but you still have not answered the question, which was,
which is the best available, not can DAB at a sufficient data rate beat FM.

Would you not concur that DAB+ which is available, is better than DAB,
and is therefore more likely to be "the best available"?

Or perhaps that DVB-t (or come November DVB-t2) or DVB-s2 is the
best available transmission system?



FM can be very good assuming a good programme feed, top notch modulator,
good aerial , excellent receiver, and clean signal..

Digital can be very good to, assuming a good clean feed and sufficient
bits..
