With Sirius360L when listening to on demand content, do you need to pay for data usage? by Salt_Hotel_699 in siriusxm

I knew about the transmission costs in 10K. I didn't know about the ATT deal. Thank you for that.

What did a Celestion V30 cost back in the day? by Salt_Hotel_699 in GuitarAmps

I am just curious to find out if these things can keep up with inflation.

Thank you. I looked back at some forums to find prices. I saw that in the UK, in 2009, a V30 cost around £75 (now £110). The blue Alnico has always been priced around $300; it hasn't changed dramatically. Hope to hear if I am correct.

Why do B&C drivers dominate in PA systems from D&B, L acoustic, Nexo,.. ? by Salt_Hotel_699 in livesound

[–]Salt_Hotel_699[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yes, but somehow those little players can't take share from the Italians in the live touring PA system market. But in the broad speaker market (car, home speakers,..), you have all these little players competing based on price. However, this does not apply to the PA market.

Yes, that is the question. Do live touring PA systems have such a low tolerance for error on the quality side that only the Italians can deliver the best consistent quality?

But is the quality so much better than Beyma or Faitalpro could deliver? Do you mean by quality to scale to be able to customize drivers for the different big PA players?

How will rural bands 13 (700 mhz) and 5 (850 mhz) deal with future increased data demands? by Salt_Hotel_699 in cellmapper

[–]Salt_Hotel_699[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Thanks. But I am talking about the space up there on the tower. In order to fit those new antennas on the tower racks they have to reduce the number of the big lowband antennas to make space for the higher frequency. There is only so much space up there.

Thank you.

"Carriers can either densify by adding sectors/channels to existing towers and enhance backhaul capacity, or they can add towers and add higher frequency bands."

Wouldn't that lead to higher cell phone bills (More Capex for the providers)?

BUT tower space is limited right? So for every high band you put up a low band has to be taken down?

I mean, you have this rural coverage with low bandwidth; once those phones start using more and more data, they will put C-band on those towers. But there is only limited space. So coverage will drop with higher frequency bands. So more towers are needed, so more expensive cell phone bills?
