Hello,(I'm not sure if this is appropriate here or not... Admin/Mods please feel free to move/delete this post if you think so) Is there any way to transfer data (mostly video footage) from high altitude (6000 - 7000 M+) to lower base camp site (around 8 - 10 km away) during mountaineering expedition ? There'll be no mobile coverage & apparently internet through satellite phone is much slower & very expensive. Is it possible to transfer data at high speed through some hand-held device like two way radio etc. ? Device should work at sub zero temperatures & at that altitude & at the same time should be small enough to carry in rucksack & can be charged via solar panel etc. Any pointers regarding this will be highly appreciated. Thanks !
 
Interesting! Even I'd like to know if this is possible or not.I guess WiFi and Satellite are out of question.
