Because all the transceivers mentioned use UART, you should be able to find USB alternatives, since it will be the UART connected to a FTDI USB controller. Its still all SERIAL data just packaged differently. For 2.4Ghz you can get Texas Instruments CC2530 USB Packet Sniffer- I have this its great, it can even scan 433mhz. | |

| May 14, 2014 at 17:46 | comment | added | zharvey | Thanks @ppumkin (+1) - but I have a feeling you didn't read my question entirely. I need 2 transceivers (possibly): 1 that will attach to my laptop via USB, and another that will attach to the RPi in any way, shape or form. And they need to be able to talk to each other. Thoughts? | |

Please do some research on what is out there and what fits your needs. I mean you could use FM if you wanted, or 433Mhz Serial for the slightly less cost than Bluetooth Serial. You can even make your own sub gigahertz wifi serial out of a coil and simple IC for 50 cents. The possibilities are endless. | |
| May 14, 2014 at 16:19 | comment | added | zharvey | @lenik - I asked this other question, and please note that they are 2 distinct, separate questions (not dupes!!!). This question is about selecting transceivers that would work with RPi. The other question is about making an RFID reader work with RPi. Two totally separate questions. The only commonality is their title. | |
