hcker2000,

Read what ‘novice’ wrote. He found an article that shows you can use the cheapie units (as others have stated in this thread at SFE).

_"I found an article on on/off keying (OOK) to help you. It’s titled “Wireless Monitoring System” and regards a system very similar to your’s._  
_find at [http://www.circuitcellar.com/library/pr … ti-167.pdf](http://www.circuitcellar.com/library/print/0604/RicciBitti-167/RicciBitti-167.pdf)"_

Have fun, and report back your results.
