[OZAPRS] Low Power Experimenting

[Darryl Smith]

For those who are playing with 433 MHz, you should check out Seeed Studios. They have a *LOT* of stuff that is really cool. I am using their $20 including postage USB to IR device.

They have a 433 MHz spectrum analyser for $79... http://www.seeedstudio.com/depot/rf-explorer-433m-p-784.html?cPath=174

This is a beta project, and it will be $95 once that finishes. 

Their DSO Nano is impressive, as is the bus pirate. Frankly check them out. And if you are concerned about your CC details, don't be. They are reputable, even if they are in China.

Ah, I'm glad you have a sense of humor. Its all good.

Well I've learned something; The Jaycar modules run on 434 MHz and might be useful for non-ham-radio projects.

I went on to find some 434MHz transceiver modules that interface using I2C or SPI for use with micros;
