The short answer is that the unit&lt;br&gt;uses 'guard band frequencies' and Teleware have a license for this in the&lt;br&gt;UK.  In other countries it is advisable to check if you need permission.&lt;br&gt; For example I emailed the Maldavian telecoms regulator, who, rather&lt;br&gt;annoyingly, hasn't quite got back to me yet with a response.</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">smstextnews</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 17 Jun 2008 06:42:03 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Help!
