Coded VHF Radio Transmitter

The Lotek Miniature Sensor Transmitter was developed to provide real time temperature and/or bi-modal motion data for studies involving smaller adults and juvenile fish species, reptiles and amphibians. MST can be configured as either ID-only or real time sensor transmitter and utilizes Lotek proprietary codesets enabling over 700 unique IDs per frequency (Lotek 5), thereby greatly reducing overall scan time when compared to individual frequency “beeper” type transmitters or smaller codesets available from other manufacturers. MST incorporates a highly flexible On/Off Activation and variable Burst Interval scheduler to further extend transmitter operational life.
