I agree with John and that's what I do with my remote. Mine is a bit
further away (20 mi) and I use a duplex FM UHF link - control on the
uplink, audio and telemetry on the downlink. I was also concerned with
data rate on the uplink. I started with 4800, but eventually dropped
this down to 1200 baud, as I could then use a standard FFSK chip set and
gain a bit more link margin. I find the 1200 baud rate perfectly adequate.
