No more than I've tried jumping off a building while flapping my arms :-)
Laws of physics, etc :-) :-)

I heard that it is not the bandwidth or the S/N, but the main problem is
something to do with phase.  You don't get much phase info from a FM link.

Phone lines generally also enjoy much higher signal-to-noise ratios
than most (though not all) radio links. This has a profound effect on
the optimal modulation and coding design.

Rather than repeat everything I said a few months ago, check the archives
and grep for "Shannon"...

Just how likely is that to produce significant results?  :-)

Oh, I don't know.  Someone might flame Shannon and Karn at the same
time.  Why think when you can flame instead?

I know this is noise.  At least it ain't a flame.

A radio link is nothing like a copper link.  Even a 9k6 phone modem
would not work at all over radio.

Certainly FBB for Linux has stirred up some healthy interest in Linux.

Don't forget though that the Linux kernel implementation of AX.25
and NetRom have at least one of their roots in NOS. At least in part the
Linux kernel amateur radio protocol support is a child of the work on
NOS. Certainly in my experience the people who have most avidly adopted
Linux as a platform are those that have happily worked with NOS for many
years and moved onto Linux because it presents the best opportunity to
develop the *applications* that can take most advantage of the stable
underlying protocol base that NOS was a prime mover in having developed.
FBB is one such application.

Personally, I think it was because I had my hands in the NOS memory allocator
so many times that I never wanted to see it again.  :-)
