Please
let me know if I'm wrong about the following two
understandings:
1.
Digital is not a "dial-up" option for modems. Digital is always ON and is
a PT to PT type always connected application.
There can't be used.
2.
Wireless is only going to be used "in-precinct", and is not an option from
Precinct to central site (limitations of distance/coverage)

Maryland is also
interested in digital or wireless solution. Montgomery County,
with 2638 units and 227 precincts, decided not to modem in results because
they would have been required to run analog lines in most of their
precinct locations.
