To be on the safe side, we recommend a modest investment in the time of an experienced external consultant from the arkorIoT team for at the start of your antenna journey. &nbsp;A consultation with report often costs only 3 to 4 hours working time and saves thousands of Euros in radio certification mishaps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Below is a summary of the arkorIoT team\u2019s available wireless IoT
