|
|
Hi all
I've just sold my Nokia 6630 and my bluetooth 16 channel receiver - BT-77 (the one with the blue globe in the middle)
Now i'm looking for a Receiver for my N70...
Which ones can you recommend?
I'm thinking either Holox BT-321 or something similiar
Any suggestions? |

Careful, Holox is not the same as Holux. They are just riding piggy back onthe good name.
Either of the Holux or Globalsat receivers will do. Recently we have seen a few good remarks about Nemerix based receivers, and also the occasional BT controlled on/off mode. Those are worth considering too.
Holox? No-No. _________________ Lutz

As many as you want ;-)
The question is different - how many satellites are there (24 active), how many satellites can I see (around 12 when you are on the earth surface), and finally - how many multipath signals from the same satellite can the receiver process?
There are 32 channel receivers out there, and they could theoretically process three bounced signals from each visible satellite.
In reality a 12 channel receiver is more than enough, anything above that is pure marketing. _________________ Lutz
