Spyder Stick-Up Transmitter

The Spyder™ is a self-contained frequency agile signal source for "walk-about" analysis and propagation studies. Multiple transmitters can be placed in various places in a building or coverage area to be studied. Data is collected by simply "walking-about" with a companion receiver such as the Fox receiver.
