- TurboPEP is a pepped up PEP. :-) It can transmit more bits per symbol,
- adds trellis coding, and reduces protocol overhead, but there are no
- fundamental changes. It's still half-duplex and exceedingly robust.

- Unspoofed 'g' with large packets or 'i' in half-duplex mode will
- outperform spoofed g(64,3).
