Can anyone give me any advice about how to design an antenna for this? The
reciever will be embedded in an outside wall - so the antenna can be as

big
as it needs to be. The transmitter's antenna will be in a hand held device
- so the smaller the better. Can anyone give me any tips as to how to
design this antenna? And sorry for cross posting - I wasn't sure which of
these two newsgroups this question fit best. Thanks, and happy holidays!

Very useful for a hand-held device I *don't* think!
