What was left out is what MDGC will exploit. Tests will prove that we will have the last word here and the last mile at a fraction of the cost.

The curious thing about wireless backhaul is the fact that a wire brings electricity to all these towers, fixtures, antennas and assorted equipment. "For example, while cell phones communicating with a single cell tower, powered by a connection to the electrical grid, constitute a local subnetwork, the connection between the cell tower and the rest of the world begins with a backhaul link to the core of the telephone company's network." Just how many venues actually require wireless in order to connect with the network system when an electrical cable is obviously already in place to provide power, ie the wire providing electrical service got there somehow. LMDS equipment, which has such rain fade problems that the distance between towers is short, would still require electricity. How is providing and maintaining all those extra remote electrical connections economically feasible?

From the information provided on the website, it would appear they intend to use LMDS as simply one method in their service. MDGC also provides a clear message on their website in regards to one patent in particular. (please see below)

Intellectual Property Rights

Technological advancements created at Wytec reside in various product areas and have reached different levels of maturity. The most mature category of Wytec’s technology developments are protected by U.S. patents. The other category of Wytec discoveries are less mature and are generally identified as Trade Secrets. Some of these Trade Secrets are believed to be patentable, but limitations in Wytec funding have prevented the formal submission of these discoveries to the United States Patent and Trademark Office for consideration. Various other useful discoveries may not be patentable, so are regarded as Wytec Trade Secrets because they are not known in the industry.

Wytec presently has five issued U.S. patents:

* U.S. Patent No. 5,875,396
* issued 23 February 1999. Foreign counterpart applications pending in international jurisdictions.
Title: Multichannel Radio Frequency Transmission System to Deliver Wideband Digital Data Into Independent Sectorized Service Areas.

* U.S. Patent No. 5,923,229
* issued 13 July 1999. Foreign counterpart applications pending in international jurisdictions.
Title: Simultaneous Polarization and Frequency Filtering of Transmitter and Receiver Signals in Single Antenna Systems.

* U.S. Patent No. 5,914,620
* issued 22 June 1999. Foreign counterpart applications pending in international jurisdictions.
Title: Frequency Doubling of a Quadrature-Amplitude Modulated Signal Using a Frequency Multiplier.

* U.S. Patent No. 6,041,219
* issued on 21 March 2000. Foreign counterpart applications pending in international jurisdictions.
Title: Integrated Orthogonal Mode Transducer/Filter Design For Microwave Frequency-Domain.

* US Patent Number 6,243,427
* issued on 5 June 2001. . Foreign counterpart applications pending in international jurisdictions.
Title: Multichannel Radio Frequency Transmission System to Deliver Wideband Digital Data Into Independent Sectorized Service Areas (Staggered QPSK Modulation).

Wytec Trade Secrets provide competitive advantages in three categories of product production and services:

* Ease of automated production of complex modules;
* Designs that create low-cost but high-quality modules; and
* Unique services to facilitate system installations.

The Company plans to aggressively defend its intellectual property rights. It is believed that most, if not all, of the current LMDS operators and equipment suppliers infringe on Wytec’s U.S. Patent No. 5,923,229, for sectorized, wireless, point to multi-point communications systems. Wytec has been approached by some of these companies with an interest in licensing technology from Wytec. To preserve the integrity of the Wytec brand name and preserve the value of Wytec technology, Wytec will license the technology only where it will facilitate access to markets otherwise closed to the Company. The Company will file for other patents deemed important to protect the technology of the Company.

I believe that MediaG3 MDGC could use this patent to leverage their way into agreements with the companies currently violating this patent. It will be interesting to see what comes of this as MDGC appears to be making progress although they continue to maintain very little transparency. I believe this will be beneficial as for all we know, they could be negotiating with these companies in violation right now. Watching the required paperwork rolling in to OTC Markets http://www.otcmarkets.com/stock/MDGC/financials to become current and the new MediaG3 store https://www.mediag3.com/store/ shows much is going on that we are not seeing. The company could easily PR these latest changes, but I believe they are holding off in order to release one meaty PR that will really set things in motion.

zman250: I posted only the part of the LMDS Wikipedia article that was related to the United States. I didn't "forget" to post anything. If I was trying to hide something as you infer, I wouldn't have posted the source.

The following is the entire article. I had reposted only the part that specifically addressed the US history and outlook, leaving out both the main part of the article and the comment about foreign usage.

My primary point was that many companys abandoned their LMDS portfolios as Wytec and all of its subsequent owners seem to have done.

Local Multipoint Distribution Service

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

LMDS is a broadband wireless access technology originally designed for digital television transmission (DTV). It was conceived as a fixed wireless, point-to-multipoint technology for utilization in the last mile.[1] LDMS is governed by the IEEE and is outlined by the 802 LAN/MAN Standards Committee through the efforts of the IEEE 802.16.1 Task Group [1].

LMDS commonly operates on microwave frequencies across the 26 GHz and 29 GHz bands. In the United States, frequencies from 31.0 through 31.3 GHz are also considered LMDS frequencies.

Throughput capacity and reliable distance of the link depends on common radio link constraints and the modulation method used - either phase-shift keying or amplitude modulation. Distance is typically limited to about 1.5 miles (2.4 km) due to rain fade attenuation constraints. Deployment links of up to 5 miles (8 km) from the base station are possible in some circumstances such as in point-to-point systems that can reach slightly farther distances due to increased antenna gain.

LMDS History and Outlook[edit]

United States
LMDS showed great promise in the late 1990s and became known as "wireless cable" for its potential to compete with cable companies for provision of broadband television to the home. The Federal Communications Commission auctioned spectrum for LMDS in 1998 and 1999.

Despite its early potential and the hype that surrounded the technology, LMDS was slow to find commercial traction. Many equipment and technology vendors simply abandoned their LMDS product portfolios.

Industry observers believe that the window for LMDS has closed with newer technolgies supersededing it. Major telecommunications companies have been aggressive about deploying alternative technologies such as IPTV and fiber to the premises also called "fiberoptics." Moreover, LMDS has been surpassed in both technological and commercial potential by the developing WiMax standard.

Europe & Worldwide
Although some operators use LMDS to provide access services, LMDS is more commonly used for high capacity backhaul for interconnection of networks such as GSM, UMTS, WiMAX and Wi-Fi.
