Radio Frequency Optimization

Radio Frequency Optimization

Scanner’s running hot,

Scouring the spectrum

Searching for a pilot channel.

An orthogonal frequency that’s

Divided, then multiplexed into

Pure, unencoded human speech.

A voice call. Grandpa insists on

Verbal, as if demanding typewriters

Over texting bricks covered with buttons.

With any new network, so many calls

Dropped, few retained. The trick is in
Optimizing, as any radio engineer worth
Her salt will tell you.
