Water conducts sound extremely well , better (and faster) than air. I thinking in a very free form mode here but you could rip the transducers off a couple of old fish finders and use em for tx and rcv. units. I think these guys operate above 30 KHz. You may be able to modulate enough info on to the carrier to do slow frame video. ---------- > From: Alessandro Zummo > To: PICLIST@MITVMA.MIT.EDU > Subject: Re: OT: Radio Transmission in Water > Date: Friday, March 06, 1998 12:50 PM > > Il 06-Mar-98, Jacques Audette scrisse: > > > I'm usually silent but since i already tought of the dtmf idea a while > > ago for another project and noticed it could not work, i had to say it. > > > The only problem with dtmf is the speed. the detectors cannot lock fast > > enough to get a normal bandwidth (usually a couple of ms).
