It's a 2 part question, legally these devices at least in Europe have no  
protection and operating at 10 mW eirp they are easily blasted aside.
However in practice, you will become very unpopular in your neighborhood  
if you start actively using that frequency because not only wireless  
sensors are there but at least in Europe cheaper car alarms operate there  
too and no car with one of those installed will be able to start when you  
are transmitting (first hand experience when I was experimenting with  
wideband fm there) one of the biggest problems of SRD uses is that there  
are no rules for the recievers so they will lock on any strong signal  
within 100 khz so even retuning these things a bit won't help if you plan  
on adding an external amp
