a time.
By using a receiver with datalogging capability, you’ll know exactly which animal was within range of your station, and when. Retreive your data at the site with your laptop, at your convenience.

For unattended operation beyond three days, use a 12 volt DC power supply with one
or more marine deep cycle batteries, housed in a rain and moisture proof enclosure.
We’ve heard of Knack boxes, fiberglass coolers, and ice chests being used.
You can calculate the size and number of batteries – in total ampere hours - needed
to support your system. The receiver will draw .21 amps current, so an 80 amp hour
battery, for example, will power the receiver for 380 hours (80 ampere hours / .21
amperes = 380 hours).
For operation of several weeks or more,
install a regulated solar panel at the site. The panel will act as a trickle
charger for the batteries.

Select an Antenna and Accessories
Usually, two or more Yagi antennas, or a single dipole antenna, are attached to
an anchored antenna mast made of aluminum or steel pipe. An antenna signal switchbox
is also needed. You will supply your own steel pipe for an antenna mast. Order the
antenna mounting kit, PN 13588, for each Yagi antenna you plan to install (fits
up to a 6 cm OD mast pipe).
