    lucas heights reactor center is just an excuse for australians to think that they are at the leading edge of technology - when really were not (least ways in nuclear stuff, maybe medical science) anywho - i really dont think australia has the time or money for lucas heights anymore

  3. Re:About those other technologies... on Gigabit Transfer Rates Over Power Lines? · · Score: 1

    ive read about a few that are being looked at in australia and other countries - the one that took my eye was something called a stratolite (spelling is probably wrong) something similar to a blimp which sits in the stratosphere over metropolitan areas to give wireless broadband to the area. the stratolite would have the ability to sustain itself up in the stratosphere for about 12 months before repairs and upgrades would be made..... sounds interesting to me but also costly...... richard brantz (is that his name) and virgin are also trialing a plane which does a similar job....

  4. Re:interference? on Gigabit Transfer Rates Over Power Lines? · · Score: 1

    exactly it screwed with the electrical appliances using the same line (apparently really affecting street lamps) ie flickering etc

    i think in early testing their was an overlap of bandwidth... somehow!?!???
