A category of immigrants replacing the earlier categories for nationals of under-represented countries and countries adversely ‘affected' by the Immigration and Nationality Act Amendments of 1965 (P.L. 89-236).

Receiver design which picks up a radio signal simultaneously at multiple locations and intelligently switches or combines to yield the best continuous signal.
A method of setting up a wireless system reciever so there is a minimum of dropouts (no sound). A diversity system uses two or more antennas to pick up the signal. A processor in the reciever decides which signal is stronger and silently and quickly switches to it. This system just about totally eliminates multi-path dropouts. see also drop out; multi-path
The technique of using more than one antenna to ensure that the received signal strength is always maximized.
