PTT-100 105 gram LC4™ - Battery Powered Argos/GPS PTT
Several years ago, in response to biologists' need for more accurate location data, and as a strategy to deal with the problems of radio interference in certain parts of the world, we incorporated a GPS receiver into our PTTs. In our winter 2004 newsletter we highlighted some on the research made possible by this advance in technology. In the same issue we introduced the "LC4™" PTTs, a new line of battery powered GPS enhanced PTTs. These battery-powered LC4™ PTTs give biologists the opportunity to get GPS accurate fixes in circumstances where solar powered PTTs are not suitable.
This 105g LC4™ PTT shares all the features of the original 40g LC4™, but is housed in an especially rugged case which allows for an extra battery to extend its lifetime from one year to three years.
Both the 40g and 105g LC4™ PTTs take one GPS fix each day, store the precise latitude and longitude, and transmit the stored data every 10 days to Argos thus offering an economical way to receive high quality location data.
