Bob,
I am not defending DSMX. The question was asked earlier in the forum why the Spektrum system needs satellite receivers at all when these other systems did not.
Again, that's my point, you didn't answer the question - you put some information out there that does (or does not) apply to all systems.

Yes, I have used DSM2 and its too cold to do much flying yet, still in building mode for next season...

Bob,
The question about the satellite receivers was in reference to DSSS vs FHSS. If your looking for someone to say that DSSS is inferior to FHSS, in my opinion, it is definitely inferior in terms of it's resistance to multi-path. From the information I gathered from watching the video on Horizon's site, DSMX appears to be more of a hybrid of DSSS and FHSS and not a true FHSS system, thus I would suppose that's why DSMX receivers still employ a satellite.
