I'm trying 300/300uS and 150/150uS for 1's and 0's. Detection is by determining length of a hi or lo of the bit (doesn't matter which, as both are the same) -I have had them workinbg one way (no antenna switch) over a few yards with a short wire as an antenna. -I'm looking/hoping for at least 1000 yards over open spaces. -the devices are compliant in Australia.
