DART10 Dual Acoustic-Radio Transmitter

 Available add-on to any VHF Fish Transmitter model. JSATS compatible.

Highlights:

  • Choose your VHF model, and specify DART10 add-on capability
  • Weighs only one gram above the VHF model weight specification, about 2 mm longer than dim. spec.
  • User activated and configurable using the portable Pinger Dish

The best of both worlds...VHF and acoustic signals combined in one tag.

Now you can conduct studies that make use of both acoustic and VHF radio signals, in order to optimize your tracking capabilities. First, choose one of our VHF fish transmitter models. We will integrate the acoustic electronics into the body of the transmitter, and add an acoustic transducer to the tip of the body of the transmitter. The VHF transmitter antenna will trail at the back of the transmitter.
