Any source for that? It's not like it's crazy hard to make a small digital antenna, so I'm not sure why it would be in doubt that they did so.

- snowwrestler 11y agoThe question is whether building the Aereo antenna arrays developed some special understanding of antennae that would confer competitive advantage on a wireless ISP. Wireless ISPs have been tried for 15 years, but the only place they've been successful is where there is no real alternative. Weather, humidity, and trees make it extremely difficult to compete with the bandwidth and reliability of wired Internet. Personally, I'm dubious that the Aereo antenna technologies apply to this new venture. The Aereo arrays tuned in relatively low-frequency signals from optimum locations. A wireless consumer ISP using unlicensed spectrum will be the opposite: listening for high frequencies in bad locations.
