While looking through a copy of that British electronics magazine
whose name I can never remember (Electronics and Wireless World?)
I saw a reference to a chip designed for low speed serial data over
radio.  The chip is the Plessey SL6653, but it's rated at 25 bps.
Supposedly there's an app note, AN86.   I'll find out more on this,
but I'm curious about other solutions folks have found for low speed
serial data over radio.  Is anyone aware of interesting approaches
to this?  Specific chips like Plessy's?  
While it's clearly not reasonable for lower power projects, 
I've heard of buying cheap walkie-talkies and using modems.  Can 
anyone describe how this is done?
