                             Application No. 08/674,875                               
                                                                                     
                                      ON BRIEF                                        
                                                                                     
          Before THOMAS, KRASS and DIXON, Administrative Patent Judges.               
          KRASS, Administrative Patent Judge.                                         

                                 DECISION ON APPEAL                                   

               This is a decision on appeal from the final rejection of               
          claims 1-10, 12, 13, 15-18 and 20-23.                                       
               The invention is directed to controlling the level of                  
          signals output from remote antenna units to transmission media in           
          a distributed antenna network.  In particular, the gain of a                
          remote antenna unit is reduced when its output signal level is              
                                         -1–
