Transmitter Updates

The Dual-Band ARDF Transmitter design Rev X2 is in its final stages. A last-minute feature update has been added: remote control. Support for experimenting with wireless remote control of the the transmitters has been added. The concept: attach a Dual-Band ARDF Receiver to a Dual-Band ARDF transmitter via their Cloning ports to create a Dual-Band ARDF Transceiver.

A Dual-Band ARDF Transceiver will be capable of receiving remote commands using the same antenna being used for fox transmissions. A Dual-Band ARDF Transceiver will be capable of serving as the remote control station used to send commands to the foxes in the field.

The remote-control concept is experimental at this time. But the Rev X2 hardware will provide support for developing and testing this remote control concept to make it mature and usable.
