Hi, I am looking for advice on how to integrate a PIC microchip with a
ham radio transciever. I will use this in a robot. I am looking for
100 - 300 mile range. I have a ham radio license.


aw hell.

i hope you're the AH i figure you for. if not, and this is just innocent
ignorance (is that possible?) don't take this too hard. just listen.

!-- if you are an AH... --
script language="AH_Blaster"
flame level=150%"

stop bs'ing.

1. if you have a license, you should know that you can only control
cars, boats, and aircraft at 1 watt which hopefully keeps the model
within eyesight.

i don't know what's legal for bot's, but AFAIK the max power will be .75
- 1 watt.

2. are you stupid? if you transmit that far or even just out of
eyesight, you'll

a) mung any legit R/C craft affected by your signal.
b) probably hurt someone with your POS robot.
c) cause a legit craft to hurt someone.
d) interfere with anyone communicating.


Thanks for the help

here's your help:

buy the most expensive books you can get until you're broke and can't
afford dangerous toys. go into debt to keep you out of trouble in the
future.

buy a cheap pic and glue it to a radio with no power cord or battery.
now it's "integrated."

/script

noscript
read a pic data sheet. PIC12F84A is pretty basic. get the software to go
with 'em.

figure out what you mean, next.

then ask more specific questions.
