unlicensed transmitters are in the 100-500 mw range, and have a coverage
of maybe 100 feet.

That sounds right. I thought nanowatts seemed a bit small a claim. I probably
need about 10mW based on what you said there. (I think it was Wikipedia's
article that stated the nanowatts, but as so often happens, there was no
mention of the antenna and actual radiated power, no hint of what efficiency
(or lack of) resulted.

I won't retry for now. Messing around with a direct wired link to the
external aerial is more fun for a while. ETM on a PL-390 is as fun as many
people have said it is...


And picowatts aren't even worth discussing.


I should never have mentioned them.
