I think I read the system won't even be online until 2015.
If it goes anything like the fire radio narrowbanding disaster then I wouldn't hold my breath on the timeline being met.
Anyone know if Chesters new system will be phase 1, 2 or both?...also is there any advantage to 2 vs 1 since it seems like more places are headed in that direction.
The most efficient crosspatching would retain the data protocol and not break down into baseband audio. Going down to baseband audio would be the sum of all distortion in the pathway between the original system and the secondary system, but retaining the protocol, the audio between the systems should sound seamless.Cross-links to other bands would be accomplished at either the console level (cross-patch) or at the hardware level (hardwire link). It doesn't matter whether the system uses FDMA or TDMA.
