[Ham-80211] Signal Sources

[Mike Staines]

Thanks, Gerry...

I have a plethora of 802.11 gear here and it just seemed a shame that I 
could not use one of the units for a little non-802.11 work.
Just FMing the carrier between two discrete, nearby, frequencies at a very 
low data rate would allow for some DFCW fun at some nifty distances with 
existing ham software.

Dreaming,
Mike
