&lt;p&gt;How do you determine that?&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Remember that&amp;#39;s just the sensitivity of the chip itself - the actual real-world sensitivity of your &lt;em&gt;system&lt;/em&gt; will be affected by your hardware implementation&amp;nbsp;- in particular, your antenna ...&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
