Hi,

I will be in San Francisco San Jose and Los Angeles in late January.
As I know I can subscribe to HK mobile carrier with a GSM phone
purchase in the States. So I would like to get one, properly the
Ericsson 337 or the Motorola GSM phone.

Could anyone provide me with information for purchasing one in the
area I am going to visit, shop location, price.

Any comment are welcome and appreciated.

Feel free to e-mail directly to me.

If the "new" Western Union phones are anything like the old ones they
will work when they want to.

Does anyone remember the old WU "Grey Whale"? It was part of WU's old
Metro service and you selected the bandwidth. It was grey and looked a
lot like the early TIE phones. The best part was that it used MF for
dialing.

I guess I'm getting old ... I remember them very well.

    Greetings.  I'd like to conduct a brief and informal survey about 
the
salary and responsibilities of Telecommunications Managers and
Technicians.  If you feel so inclined, please send email with the
following:

1.  What is your annual or monthly salary and title?
2.  Do you receive overtime pay or compensatory time off for overtime?
3.  Are you dedicated to telecomm or is it just one of your 
responsibilities?
4.  Are you on-call via some method?  If so, via pager or cellular?
5.  What is the size of your organization?  (In any quantity you 
prefer,
    be it people, extensions, locations, etc.)
6.  Where are you located?  (City and State, Province, or Country.)
7.  Do you have any other comments or information you feel is 
pertinent?

    I realize some of this information is sensitive, and any responses
will be kept in strict confidence.  I would like to be able to
summarize and re-post, however, with geographical references (if
given) but without attribution.  If you don't feel like answering one
or more of the questions but don't have a problem with the others,
please drop a line anyway.

   If you'd prefer not to be part of the summary in any form, please 
say
that as well.

   Thank you for your time and cooperation!

Where can I get some information upon George Gilder's work? I hear
that they are in the Telecom Archives maintained by the moderator of
comp.dcom.telecom.


Thanks,

David Patrick   dmp@patrickd.demon.co.uk


[TELECOM Digest Editor's Note: Hey, that's me you are talking about. 
Yes,
you will find Gilder's essays in the Telecom Archives, in a sub-
directory
therein by that name. In fact I spent several hours Tuesday evening 
putting
several new files in the archives and organizing things a little. One
change made was collecting all the Gilder essays and installing then 
in a
directory of their own.

I also a bit earlier this evening sent out a new updated copy of the
index to the Telecom Archives, and all subscribers to the mailing list
should have it by now. Additionally, I sent a copy to Usenet in the
comp.dcom.telecom newsgroup. Users of the archives should let me know 
of
any corrections to be made such as mis-named and/or mis-located files
they see. The archives is getting *awfully* large, so I hope everyone
will take to heart my message earlier on Tuesday and help out 
financially
as much as you deem appropriate in order that this work can continue.
Please do not misunderstand -- it *will* continue as long as I am here
to do it -- but your help is greatly appreciated.    PAT]
