My latest post makes a surprising discovery
A Wi-Fi optimization exercise in an Intel Wi-Fi evangelist's home reveals the hidden benefit of 80 GHz channels in the 5 GHz frequency band.
Today's Wi-Fi implementations are spectrum rich and radio poor.

Finally, strong Senate action to renew the FCC's auction authority.
Three cheers to @SenJohnThune @SenTedCruz and @MarshaBlackburn for introducing the Spectrum Pipeline Act of 2024, freeing up 2,500 MHz of mid-band spectrum for auction that's currently under-utilized by DoD. While NTIA studies, the Senators act. Dems should sign on to this bill.
