One would think that at least once in his life Mike would be able to
demonstrate that he knows what he's talking about.  Mike, before posting more
bullshit, learn a bit about signal processing, and elementary physics, OK? 
We're talking about a signal that's to be received thousands of miles away. 
Now, I know that such things as attenuation, phase dispersion, signal/noise
ratio and so forth aren't taught in kindergarten, so perhaps you've got an
excuse for your ignorance.

understanding of astronomy is purely at the amateur level (or below).  So
unless what I'm saying is directly related to VAX/VMS, don't hold me or my
organization responsible for it.  If it IS related to VAX/VMS, you can try to
hold me responsible for it, but my organization had nothing to do with it.
