Based on the PTT that began it all. It was a 95g PTT-100 that our founder, Paul Howey, used to prove that the Argos system could track migrating birds via satellite with low-powered transmitters. The design of the 95g PTT has served as the cornerstone for the many advancements we have developed since that time, yet this model continues to prove valuable for studying species in habitats with limited lighting. The 95g PTT has been updated many times over the years to incorporate our latest technology.
