[NSRCA-discussion] 2.4ghz

[RCSkyraidr at aol.com]

Hi All,
 
If I correctly understood what I was told at  this weekend's WRAM Show by the 
Futaba people (not by any stretch a guarantee),  their new 2.4ghz system does 
not just blindly frequency hop to any  ole` frequency. I was told that the 
transmitter "looks ahead" several steps  to insure that the next few frequencies 
in the "hop" are available. If the  next planned frequency in the "hop" is 
occupied, the transmitter does  not include that frequency in its hopping 
schedule. In short, I was  told that the transmitter will only switch to unused 
frequencies. 
 
BTW - I was also told that the transmitter uses a "coding system" with its  
receiver, similar, I guess, to the Horizon system, combined with the  frequency 
changing.
 
You radio experts will know much better than I how this "looking ahead"  
would work or if it is even possible. Since I don't know, I asked a lot of  
questions, always got the above answers, and have to believe what I was  told until 
I hear better here. 
 
Regards,
Frank Granelli
