Re: Now I've Been Cited in the Cablevision Supreme Court Case
Interesting observation John. One of the factors driving Cablevision to provide the service was the ability to offer customers DVR capability without having to do a truck roll or have the customer and company install "costly" premises equipment. With TIVO having made peace with the copyrig...

Re: A Telephone-Based Remote-Controlled Radio Receiver
Paul - Remember that this existed in the early internet era in which dial-up speeds were 14.4 - 28.8 kb/sec. Streaming audio was in its early infancy with Mark Cuban of AudioNet just beginning to do it point-to-point to back haul basketball games for his own use. Now, he owns a team. By making all r...

Re: Now I've Been Cited in the Cablevision Supreme Court Case
Yeah, the main thing they wanted was injunctive relief. They never asked for their $1500 award. Even the settlement ordered by the judge was cited in NFL v. Prime 24. They took my $500 per alleged act and sought $200 each for theirs. Talk about lowering the bar... :) He denied them their fees too......

Re: Now I've Been Cited in the Cablevision Supreme Court Case
Welcome to the big time... Well it didn't feel like it at the time I can assure you. Now I can laugh about. I suppose that if you wind up losing its better to lose to the best and have them write a book about it. :geek: http://cyber.law.harvard.edu/publications/2004/Copyright_Law_A_Practitioners_Gu...

A Telephone-Based Remote-Controlled Radio Receiver
I've been meaning to post this for a long, long time... It's a DTMF-controlled radio that back-hauls audio through telephone lines cirrca 1993.

Re: Now I've Been Cited in the Cablevision Supreme Court Case
I e-mailed the lead attorney representing Cablevision to congratulate him for standing up to the copyright bullies. He made a very interesting comment that I'm not able to share. But wow, check out the number of books that cite it: http://books.google.com/books?lr=&q=infinity+broadcast+v.+kirkwo...

Re: Now I've Been Cited in the Cablevision Supreme Court Case
It was quite a bit of fun to beat, as a pro se , one of the top law firms in the country at the District Court level. I "lost" on appeal in the Second Circuit however with the case remanded back to District Court for consideration of additional issues. The later District Court judgment, a ...

Re: Oscilloscope mods?
I need to find a good point to get vertical out.
I have a Tenma RLC meter and Quad output PSU. Both work very well and provide great value.
I was thinking it was one of those ancient mic connectors. I've never seen a 'scope that used one but a lot of Bogen.
