FAQs

Each Stingray™ Transmitter is housed in a high impact ABS water-resistant case. It has a built-in agile frequency synthesizer, dynamically controlled power amplifier and a built-in modem and DTMF (touch-tone) decoding allowing remote control of all transmitter parameters via a phone line or cellular telephone. Remote adjustments include the power level, channel or frequency assignment, and transmit On/Off.
