Words are rarely a adequade way to convey feelings. So, just thank you uncle_bob!

I see that I have to hurry in writing the assembly manual or it will eventually not be necessary for you...
If you gonna start to assemble the TX board, just some hints:
- No need to install the resistors R5 and R6. They're there just in case, you want to connect a device to the I2C connector that does not have pullup resistors for SDA and SCL lines (normally the I2C devices have it's own pullup resistors on this lines).
- The RF range of the FS1000A module without a good antenna is only a few metters, but with a good antenna it can easily reach two hundred meters in open field. I sugest something like this (in the assembly manual will be a better photo).
