Mr. Tommus smiles, "That would be nice, but that'll pretty much blow the budget I was provided. Those encryption modules are about 2000 apiece. Even in bulk, they run 1500 credits. Your basic commlink only has a range on 50km or so. The settlements on Sneeve are fairly isolated, you shouldn't have to worry about their headquarter monitoring your movements or anything. Anyone who picks up your transmissions will be local."

Seeing the obvious disappointment, Mr. Tommus adds, "We do have access to them and can sell them to you should you acquire sufficient funds.". After shrugging his shoulders, he adds, "Sorry."
