Don't even think about it. If you know that you are going for 300fsw, the Air-x will be of no more use to you than a bottomtimer. Also, the Air-x is based on air, you did'nt think about going to 300fsw on air, did you ??. And if you don't follow it's deco-profile, it's getting pretty mad, and won't work for the next 48 hours. (flashing SOS). The only thing that I know about regarding transmission failure, is that the Air-x won't be able to calculate your gas-consumption, and you can't se whats left in your tanks. But there have also been reported problems when using mobile phones to close to air integrated diving-computers using radio-transmitters. But there are pros and cons regarding every computer. The depth gauge is accurate, but never thrust on only one depth gauge and timer , if you are doing deep dives.
