HNM insists the canonical figure for that is 3 bits an hour. You can't get a very long message inside ~11.4kb.

True, true. But then again Jake and Co would be limited by the same bandwidth issues as well(unless Pandora has a really strong ansible). Either way it degenerates into a shouting match between the to.

Also downloading footage of the attack over that type of link....would take a very, very long time. Trust me. On GOOD days I get maybe 80kb download rate. I am STILL trying to download a HD version on Game of Thrones...its 20gbs and has been going for about three days now.

I thought the idea was that Jake & co. use a conventional radio signal. (Ignoring the power required to send such a signal)
