To game the unlimited base station rule in these criteria: you could use an EMP weapon type of transmitter. Apparently you can get tens of terawatts with flux-compression generator + vircator/reditron systems, or more with nuclear devices. The pulses are quite short so I'm not sure how the transmitted payload would be encoded, but I'm sure a RF engineer could tell you.
