You chose to ignore it then, so there aint any point in posting it again.

By your reasoning (sic) if CDMA covered 98% of Oz, and let's be kind and say
nextG covers 99% of Oz, then .,..
To apply NextG over ALL of mainland Australia and NONE of Tasmania (which is
less than 1% of Oz) would be same/equivalent or better.
Yeah, right.

Of course we're not currently discussing it previously. That doesn't
even make sense.
However, you ignored it previously and will no doubt ignore it now as
well.

You lie - again. May as well start with the Hansard entry.
And this time, unlike last time, don't ignore the most important quoted
words: "their coverage footprint will remain."
Hansard for ECITA 46, 13th Feb. 2006:
Senator Coonan. "We know what consumers want here: they want to be able
to continue to have a good coverage and to be able to have at least as
good a service as they get with CDMA. We know what consumers want. This
is a very technical inquiry group that we have convened here to make
sure that these issues can be sorted out in the long-term interests of
consumers."
Senator CONROY. "As it stands we are basically being told by Telstra,
'Trust us; we'll deliver what we.re telling you,' even though it
actually has not been done anywhere else in the world."
Senator Coonan. "I do not think Telstra is saying, 'Trust us'. What
Telstra is saying is, 'We will work with you, the department, and we
will work with you, the regulator, to make sure that service standards
are at least equivalent to CDMA and to make sure that the services to
consumers are not interrupted.'"
Mr Jennings. "I will address two aspects of that. First, the network.
Because they would largely be using CDMA now, their coverage footprint
will remain. That is a given."
(Mr Max Jennings, General Manager, Wireless Access Services, Telstra)

Not a relevant comparison, as every CDMA base was replaced with a NextG one,

Yep, because Telstra committed to supplying at least the same coverage
footprint as CDMA. You appear to have forgotten to reply to _my_ posts
in this thread Michael. I hope you're not going to ignore them yet
again!

Nup, seems only you think that. Not even Telstra agree with you.

I can paste it for you yet again if you want, but we all know you're

And in fact, the Australian Government certainly doesn't agree with you
either. From the amendment to Telstra's carrier licence conditions:
(a) the existence of equivalent or better coverage is
to be determined having regard to:
(i) the area that a signal emitted from a
base station covers as it is propagated around the base station; and
(ii) the extent to which a signal emitted
from a base station is of sufficient strength to enable the connection
and maintenance of voice calls using only an appropriate handheld mobile
phone handset; and
(iii) the extent to which a signal emitted
from a base station is of sufficient strength to enable the connection
and maintenance of voice calls using an appropriate mobile phone used in
connection with an external aerial;

My understanding is, and Michael, if I remember correctly, posted that here in
the past, was that where there was a CDMA tower, a NextG cell would be
commissioned. And that Telstra would be building MORE NG towers than what there
were CDMA ones.
So, if you're not getting NextG where once you got CDMA, then either they aren't
replacing CDMA with NG, or that the new NG cells don't have the same range as
what CDMA did.

How do you figure that?
Or is Telstra's definition of "same" different to what the rest of us use?

And that lack of range could be because the phones aren't up to
scratch.

Which was exactly the ACA's finding.
They found that on their little road trip, the coverage footprint itself
was (almost) equivalent. Considering their path of travel was known to
Telstra well in advance of the NextG test, you'd hope they put a lot of
effort into making sure every square inch had equivalent coverage.
However, their finding was that the handsets weren't up to scratch,
hence an "equivalent" service was not being provided, hence they weren't
meeting their new license condition, hence they had to delay the CDMA
closure.
And because their test was only along a known route, it's understandable
that Telstra perhaps didn't put the same effort into ensuring coverage
equivalence in every other NextG cell across the country which explains
why some people with acceptable NextG handsets find CDMA provided a
better coverage footprint in their local area.
And I notice Michael has suddenly gone silent in this thread since I
dragged out the archives showing Telstra committed to providing an
equivlant coverage footprint and that everybody other than him
understands "service equivalence" to mean the same footprint and handset
quality, not just the same raw number of sq km coverred.
