Imagine being given $17-billion dollars and 15-years to design a perfect radio. Would you be honest and say, “It can’t be done?” Or would you take the money and the 15-years after which you would announce, “It can’t be done.”

Here is a quote from the article:
“The desire to use a single antenna for many different wavelengths bumps up against laws of physics, which make it difficult to pull in strong signals across the spectrum,”
Overloaded Tree
This is what happens when the government occupies over 90 percent of the spectrum. Basically hogging more than they really need.
Why not use a proprietary system based on the civilian cell phone system? Small, highly portable and even allows for text messaging!
Imagine….we are concerned about people text messaging while driving. Wonder what kind of fiasco would come about with combat troops in the field text messaging during battle!

Why not use a proprietary system based on the civilian cell phone system?
Wouldn’t that mean they’d have to put cellphone towers up all over the place?
Give Away Locations
Well instead of cell towers, they can use satellites. Be even more secure and far more reliable than depending upon propagation across the terrain.
It amazes me that most of the consumer electronics we use today spin from military technology. There is no reason why it cannot work in reverse for the military…taking civilian communications concepts and adapting them for military uses.
Sure would solve a lot of issues..and save a bunch of our tax dollars we don’t have anyway!
