You realize we only talk on VoIP lines and cell phones right? That's got to be the 150-200 ms range.

Codec choice also plays an important role; the highest quality (and highest bandwidth) codecs like G.711 are usually configured to incur the least encode-decode latency, so on a network with sufficient throughput sub-100 ms latencies can be achieved. G.711 at a bitrate of 64 kbit/s is the encoding method predominantly used on the public switched telephone network. I would not be “very satisfied” at 200ms. I would want to find a land line at 200 ms. Not sure who they poll for this stuff but I have actually worked on circuits doing these types of evaluations in the early 1990s. 100 ms sucks. Once you hit 50 ms I start to lose the ability to detect latency. At 20 ms nobody can tell.

Price of hardware will evantually come down with mass volume from Starlink and other LEO players. This could disrupt broadband internet as we know it.

I'm not really because I don't care how hot your signal is, you'll be going over 100KM into space.

We didn’t find much, but we’d be pretty interested in seeing of this is a possibility. We are wondering if it would be more feasible/cheaper than building out a new tower site for 2-3 subscribers surrounded by trees and will be the most the tower will every have on it. Or if you can make any money on it.
