Thank you for your input on TV RF transmission.  I have already started
studying for my technicians FCC license, study material was obtained from
my local Radio Shack store.

I might mention that the primary reason I am looking into this is the hopes
of putting a camera in a remote control airplane.  There are other potential
uses if that is not successful but that is my goal.  I have found several
dealers who deal in security cameras that sell B&W cameras that measure
as small as 2x2x3 inches for about $600.  The problem is getting the 
transmitter.  I want to do this all legally, so I am curious is it illegal
to sell TV RF transmitters even to licensed ameteurs?   

Also, in the July 1989 issue of Radio Electronics magazine they actually
have an article on building your own TV transmitter.  I have built a digital
volt meter from kit before, but this looked a bit more difficult.  I am
also skeptical of any plans for devices that are in magazines, I have found
the output quality of some of them to be very poor.  Has anyone out there
built the kit described in Radio Electronics magazine?  If so, how difficut
was it and how well did it work?

By the way, I am hoping to find a transmitter that weighs under 4 oz.
The camera weighs about 6 oz. and the batteries will be about 6 oz giving
a total weight of about 1 lb. which can easily be carried by a large
R/C airplane powered by a .60 sized engine.
