Actually, that's a good question since there's a ham band from 2300-2450 which we "share" with other users at the top. In return for being outnumbered at least 1000:1 we can run more power, but malicious interference is verboten. It wouldn't be the first time something like this slid by though, a new service. http://www.qsl.net/kb9mwr/projects/wireless/allocations.html But you can buy a WiFi card for $5, a ham rig is more like at least $100 and hams are a dying breed. http://www.arrl.org/files/file/Regulatory/Band%20Chart/Hambands4-web-color_4-25-17.pdf On 9/4/17, Alan Corey <alan01...@gmail.com> wrote: > Try this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logitech_Unifying_receiver > It's sort of like Bluetooth without pairing.
