I don't know why this was proposed as a video FM transmitter. In any case, reception of FM video is a bit more complex. Of course, if you were in the right frequency range, a TVRO system (with smaller dish) could make a good receiver, and probably do decent range with low power. Speaking of all this, whatever did the original poster decide to do? I would recommend getting an amateur license, and going for that, but perhaps an experimental license is availiable in Canada, similar to ones that are availiable in U.S. I would have substantial fear about flying a camera. Awfully expensive crash! Alan
