The  RT30 shall use the Nordic Semiconductor nRF905 for both the TU and RU RF system controllers.  The 
nRF905 was chosen for its combination of low power operation, minimal overhead, and system flexibility. 
 
Features of the nRF905 include: 
 
•  433MHz, 868MHz, or 915MHz band 
•  SPI port communication 
• proprietary 
ShockBurst™ low-power operation 
•  low-power standby mode 
•  32-bit addressing minimizes false communication 
•  programmable output power and frequency 
•  automatic generation of 8/16-bit CRC 
• 32-pin
