Jason,
In my other mail, I have mentioned that the "Karlton Morning Range
Test" did not necessary reflect RF link integrity due to absence of
2nd and/or third Tx as the interferer(s). I take it as a
sensitivity/range comparison more than a IPD vs Convension comparison.
In addition, most range test I had was more than 50 feet to the
convension Rx.
