Cool, the speeds are the same up and down! Hurry up and get this deployed in the UK too...
For news on the UK version of this failed legacy technology check;

"we've had it for some months now in Stonehaven... We get a reasonable upload speed of around 400kbps, but downloads are usually around 300. That's a far cry from the "speeds up to 1 meg" that they claim. Service is not too great either. We have several times lost all connectivity for periods of several hours". In his only other post at ISPreview, Bob says "We have both BT broadband and Hydro Broadband here. BT broadband is significantly faster for most tasks.".

Looks as if it sucks as well as pollutes.

"We have several times lost all connectivity for periods of several hours"

You know what that means don't you?
It means ingress from Licensed Services.
Whenever someone within 5 miles transmitts at only 5watts in the HF band, all traffic in the area will be halted because the bit error rate will be 10 e-1 to 10 e-3 as long as the transmissions continue. Whenever they unkey, the system waits a few seconds to try and reconnect, but most transmissions occur randomly within this time, especially CW transmissions. Now look at the CB band for example, there's always someone on there within a mile of anywhere.
