-Licence exempt FM TV modules running in the 2.4GHz band are readily available in the UK for CCTV application – what's more more this band is explicitly allowed to used used in airborne TV applications.  So what sort of distances can be achieved?

   * Payload antenna gain is 0dBi (omni-directional)
   * A Large ground station antenna of 24dBi (e.g. 3ft diameter dish)

-The use of bigger antenna dishes would result in longer distances – as a general rule – doubling the dish diameter will double the workable distance.
