(In reply to a followup from U5434122@uscvc.unimelb.edu.au, whom I can't seem to reach by e-mail.) (Q. How many channels are supported?) A. The technical details issued to Joe Public by one company quotes 40 x 100khz channels. Encoding is 32kbit digital pcm. Max user density is given as 7,700 users per sq km. 'Home' base stations, which I understand can allow these phones to accept calls if they are left on 'standby', have capacity for 6 phones, which can dial each other.
