Re: Ricochet and various wireless (was: Re: [PLUG] key-signing Thursday?)

The (less) expensive ones use both - .9/2.4G TX/RX and they are not spread
spectrum. A true 2.4G full duplex SS runs about $120 or more last time I
checked. You have to read the fine print when you buy these things. It can
be deceiving. I bought one (.9/2.4) for about $70 and I ended up taking it
back and getting a full SS unit. It worked infinitly better.
