| 1. An apparatus, for use in a receiver configured to receive electronic signals, for identifying digital signals that are
available for reception, the apparatus comprising:
a timing recovery device configured to receive an incoming signal, related to a transmitted signal, the incoming signal having
a first symbol rate, and to re-sample the incoming signal to provide a second symbol rate; and
an analyzer that is in communication with the timing recovery device and that is configured to make a determination as to
whether a difference between the second symbol rate and a third symbol rate of a transmitter providing the transmitted signal
is within an acceptable tolerance and to use the determination in an analysis of whether the transmitted signal is available
for reception.
