OK. I watched the movie in theaters when it came out, but (a) having no Showtime and (b) just not thinking the series could do the movie justice lead to not watching SG1. Saw enough of the promos on SciFi that I got very interested in SGA. Roommate has the first five seasons on DVD and I'm making my way through them, but I'm also working on a fic and have a question.
How do the MALF's and communicators work? My guess is they broadcast their signal to the Gate, then that Gate sends it to the main Gate, which in turn sends the signal to the receivers on the other side, thereby neatly sidestepping distance/delay issues. I'd imagine there's something about the Gates being one Gate in some quantum mannor, but I've only an intuitive grasp of science. Which can actually come in handy once in a while.
My fic(s) are currently up on fanfiction.net. But I've got something mulling in my head and and understanding of the communication issues would be good.
Thanks in advance for any help.
