For my networks exam in August, I need to calculate Nyquist's theory and Shannon's theory.

Nyquists is I = 2Hlog2V
where H is the bandwidth and V is the number of levels.

Thing is though, calculators only do log 10, not log 2.

Does anyone have any idea how to work log 2 on a calculator?

Yes.... say you have log216.....now you have to have a base of 10 so you change it by doing it like this. (log16)/(log2) and it should = 4 if not just put (log2) over (log16)

Ah sweet. Thanx very much.

Your welcome...tell me if it works for you.

Works spot on. I've put in my notes as

get log 10 x.
divide result by log 10 2

i.e. log 10 x / log 10 2

That is good...I am happy to see That I still have the knowlage to pass on....well I am glad to help you.
