This bit of radio beacon kit has taken my interest. Could any kind soul/s shed some light, that I can understand.
The posts on RCgroup are way above my head :?
So far as I can understand- this tiny transmitter [around 50 USD] is paired to a compatible hand held radio.
Under a given parameter [lack of sound?] the transmitter activates, and sends a series of signals that will permit the radio to be used to locate the lost model. I believe the range to be up to 6 Km.
If my basic understanding here is correct, my first question is how does one go about selecting a 'compatible radio' - and what is the information with regard to channel/frequency that has to be given to the developer when ordering.
If anyone could put together 'a complete muppet guide'- I would be most grateful.
This is the link to the developer- http://fmtv.us/rf_beacon.html
