    I very appreciate your kindness n willingness for experience sharing.
  • I would concure with the Xbee recomendation, these are a very reasonable price and (more importantly) pre-qualified so you can be sure that they're not splattering RF all over the place. Most people will be spending a lot more on their projects than they spend on the radios. What is your budget?

    If you tell us the bandwidth of data required, what format and whether it need to be bi-directional 'we' might be able to help some more.
