You have let the secret out. Now we will find 6m to crowded to use. Have to move higher up in the Ham bands. Like 420 Mhz, 902 Mhz, & 1240 Mhz. Could make use of some of the IC's made for the home cordless spread spectrum phones. Hams could make are own spread spectrum R/C Radios But before you will see spread spectrum R/C Radios for use by general public, you have to fight for a peace of the RF spectrum that all the Big Boys (Corporations ) want to use up. The FCC is making big money selling off parts of the spectrum to the Corporations. It would be very nice to have this technology for R/C. It would probably take lots of money, & lobbying the gov.. Got 4 or 5 million or more to put in lobbying for 2 Mhz in the 900 Mhz spectrum. The price of are Radios would be a bit higher, but should not be that bad. Howard Rudy KA7YWO SLC, UT.
