Okay, now I've heard of these cheap SS cards that are out there from
another source, but I'm still trying to track down what exactly people
are using. These things come out in the $500 price range -- so that's
close, but not quite the $120 price you mentioned.
http://www.connectronics.com/rangelan.htm
I assume different products from different manufacturers will be
incompatible -- right? Or will any SS card talk to any other --
are there standards for this? What cards are you using to
get the 4 mile range? Do you get 1 mega-bits/s with this?

Try:
http://www.proxim.com/symphony
These are from the same company who makes rangelan, but are consumer
grade (whatever that means).
I don't think symphony cards use the new standard 802.something, and
are probably not compatible with anything else. But then again,
everything else is twice as expensive. The cards operate at 1.6 Mbps
and 100 mW. That's not true full-duplex, but with spread spectrum,
it's not really half-duplex either. It's fast.

Subject: Anyone tried RadioCom 4.0???
Try here for sound card programs.
http://www.muenster.de/%7Ewelp/sb.htm
I have tried the btl program under win98 on a very cheap motherboard
that has the sound built in and even though it is a dos programs the btl
program works under win98.
I also tried the ftv program for cw ,but can not remember if it was
under dos or win98.
