You could use a Wireless LAN system on 13 cm band.
No (except in Italy) costly lincense required, integrates
transparently on IEEE 802 LAN, easy to set-up.
Plug the board into a Cisco router or a Linux box acting as a router,
attach a suitable antenna, configure the router and all works.
Using a g3ruh with a couple of fm radio is costly (a commercial service
V/UHF radio is about $500 and you need a commercial license) and
1000 times slower than a wavelan system, you have to twek with ax.25,
that is insuitable if you have to use IPX or netBEUI.
