Satellite Tags Have Arrived
Link to Introductory Page The last two of our Telonics satellite tags arrived on Monday. They have been "booted up" and they worked fine, communicating with the Iridium Satellite system and transmitting locations to our STRP account. We are in the midst of packing all the materials needed to complete the attachments successfully. It is important that we not leave anything out because, if we forget anything, we won't be able to find it on Moso Island! One of our 4 SeaTrkr tags that we hope to deploy on post-nesting hawksbill turtles when we visit Moso Island in January. Above is the Iridium satellite tag products list along with a bit of information about their size and battery life characteristics.
