TRX-1000S Telemetry Receiver

About this product

Monitor or track up to 200 animals with this sophisticated but easy-to-operate radio telemetry receiver. The TRX-1000S receiver has improved digital circuitry to enable fast, accurate tuning of transmitter signals.  Noise-reducing digital audio filters reduce background noise drop away to clarify signal and ensure greater sensitivity.  The TRX-1000S has a noise blanking circuit to reduce unwanted noise and an attenuator to reduce signal swamping when the transmitter is close to the antenna.  The nickel hydride battery can be charged from mains power and has virtually no memory build-up and the receiver can be powered directly from a 12V car battery with the included cable.
