Abstract: A method and apparatus in a noise cancellation system that receives a noise reference signal via a noise reference signal input port, and performs at least one of procedures a and b set forth below for reducing noise in a DSL data signal transmitted on a DSL transmission line to which the noise cancellation system is coupled: a.i.) creating a noise free representation of a DSL synchronization symbol repeatedly occurring in the transmitted DSL data signal, and a.ii.) reducing the noise in the transmitted DSL data signal based on the noise free representation of the DSL synchronization symbol and the received noise reference signal, and b.i.) analyzing at least one of the received noise reference signal and the transmitted DSL data signal to identify one or more frequency bands in which to de-emphasize noise cancellation in the transmitted DSL data signal, and b.ii.

Abstract: A tree saw includes a frame adapted to be attached to the boom of a prime mover, a tree clamping mechanism on the frame, and a carriage assembly on the frame below the clamping mechanism. The carriage assembly includes a generally plate-like chassis, a generally U-shaped bulkhead upstanding from the chassis and providing a recessed base portion and forwardly-extending arm portions, and a slide mechanism on the arm portions. A rail mechanism on the frame receives the slide mechanism for reciprocating movement of the carriage assembly. A hydraulic cylinder assembly interconnects the bulkhead and frame for reciprocating the carriage assembly. An annular rim member rotatably mounted on the chassis has a geared inner circumference and a toothed outer circumference projecting forwardly of the base portion. A motor-driven pinion mechanism on the chassis engages the rim member inner circumference to rotate the rim member.
