The MCFT3 series VHF radio transmitters are highly configurable with advanced activation scheduling, multiple sensor capability, programmable output power, and data archiving in a compact waterproof package. Compatible with Lotek SRX receiver series, the MCFT3 builds upon the reliability of previous microprocessor-based MCFT and MCFT2 series. The MCFT3 incorporates temperature, depth, and multi-level accelerometer based activity data, an advancement over MCFT2 use of binary motion sensors.
MCFT3 sets a new standard for wildlife telemetry by incorporating the very latest developments in radio frequency and microprocessor technologies to deliver new data and an enhanced feature set for more effective fisheries research and monitoring.
