> 2.4GHz spread spectrum

Ruben, I believe that the quotation about your product is true, but I also
believe (strongly)  that the 2.4GHz band is at most 10% wide. If the
standing wave pattern will not have narrow deep notches (as it usually
hasn't - they are nice |sin| ones) then by not using space diversity you
have a very good chance to be in the 'dark' 50% of the time.  This
experience I have is mostly from 2.4GHz video links which do this,
especially near full range with lots of metal around. It is common
practice to bend a piece of piano wire and put it as 'reflector' behind
the rubber ducky receiver antenna. With some tweaking you get rid of the
'hole' (and have some gain). Paddle antennas are 'fixed' using metal trays
(aluminium) of comparable size behind their back ... with a SD transmitter
these problems do not exist.
