   * Video: 2.400 – 2.4835 GHz 10 mW EIRP (Effective Isotropic Radiated Power) 20 MHz Bandwidth
-Equipment must conform to EN 300 220
+Modules must conform to EN 300 220
 And as of September 08 - 500mw on 869.40- 869.65 MHz < 10% duty cycle
-Given the very low powers (10mW is about the power used by a dim LED)- its going to take some doing to use these in balloon to ground communication.
+Given the very low powers (10mW is about the power used by a dim LED)- its going to take some doing to use these in balloon to ground communication - but it can be done - over 400Km has been achieved.
+Below is an example of a 10mW NBFM (Narrowband FM) transmitter module for use at 434.650MHz.
+{{communication:radiometrix_ntx2-434.650-10_full.jpg?200|Radiometrix NTX2}}
+The [[http://www.radiometrix.com/|Radiometrix NTX2]] is the module of choice for UK HABing.
