868.4 is fine to use in NZ last I checked? Its AU that has problems with it.

Anyway, if RSM visited about things that were not licensed I am sure I would know about it ;)

Yup, from rsm's site:

In the band 868 to 870 MHz, the maximum permitted peak power is –27 dBW (2 mW) and the maximum permitted duty cycle is 1%, except in the band 869.2 to 869.25 MHz, where the maximum permitted peak power is –20 dBW (10 mW) and the maximum permitted duty cycle is 0.1%.

I think Nexcom would be upset if someone was using their allocated frequency and it interfered

I'm a little confused..

The General Licence as listed on http://www.rsm.govt.nz/cms/licensees/types-of-licence/general-user-licences/short-range-devices anyone can use them as long as they are within the db levels etc

but if you want to use above these levels you have to pay/register the frequencies? (as found if you search http://www.rsm.govt.nz/smart-web/smart/page/-smart/domain/licence/SelectLicencePage.wdk?fromHome=Yes)

Is this correct?
