Melih, great job.

Freq.? Power consumption? Estmated rnage? Price? :)))

Developer Comment by Sandro Benigno on October 10, 2012 at 11:49am

Congratulations for keep showing the innovative spirit as you guys used to do.

Now I'm looking forward to see the price.

"We are producing OpenBee modules with U.FL socket. PCB also compatible with SMA connectors." 

Great choice because anyone can solder a SMA. But you can't say the same to an U.FL... =)

I agree with Sandro that the U.F.L connector is not that robust and requires a delicate touch when making and removing the physical connection. How do I know? I have several transreceivers that use the U.F.L connectors and you have to be very careful that you do not damage the connector during the alignment process.

Just a thought.

Regards,

• maybe it,s possible Melih, since I work on the openlrs and know your product to do something here in Canada

If you want to see what's on the bottom, it's going to cost you.

I really want to sell these bad boys in Canada! someone help me dig the latest legislation over the  900Mhz band to see if I can legally import and sell these.

@ Dany, call IC and ask to talk to an inspector, they are not monsters they are here to help.

Thank you guys.
I guess everything will be clear about OpenBee in few days. I'm working on some different projects and they are stopping me. This is why i cant focus on only OpenBee, but i will.
Thanks for understanding.

About pricing: OpenBee using our OpenLRS Rx v2 board design and production cost is similar. I guess same price(59$) is the fair price for everyone.if we can find enough interest,  I hope the price will be under 50$ in few months.  

Xbee's 100mW UHF modules 71$ and buffering and other xbee style things killing me.  I hope you will like OpenBee and write your own code.  

PS: I will share a UHF spectrum analyzer code first. You can scan and find the free frequencies around :)
