$20 microwave transmitter/receiver



Today's New York Times (4/15) page D4 tells of a device which is intended to fit on a
baseball mitt and give the speed of an approaching baseball in mph. The projected
price is $80. This is radar, calculation, and display in a palm-sized package.

This suggests that a microwave transceiver must be available on a chip for around $20
or so. Where might one find out about a device like that?
