  Lotek radio telemetry systems for fish and wildlife
Radio telemetry involves the use of transmitters to emit the signals, receivers to detect and record them, and accessories to further support and enhance this tracking technology.
Lotek's radio telemetry systems are among the most advanced of their kind in the world.
Radio telemetry can be utilized in virtually any habitat, be it freshwater, terrestrial, marine or avian.

  Radio - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Radio was used to transmit pictures visible as television as early as the 1920s.
Radio was used to pass on orders and communications between armies and navies on both sides in World War I; Germany used radio communications for diplomatic messages once its submarine cables were cut by the British.
Radio remote control: Use of radio waves to transmit control data to a remote object as in some early forms of guided missile, some early TV remotes and a range of model boats, cars and aeroplanes.

Radio is a technology that allows for the transmission of signals by modulation of electromagnetic waves.
A radio wave is created whenever a charged object accelerates with a frequency that lies in the radio frequency (RF) portion of the electromagnetic spectrum.
Radio teletypess usually operate on short-wave (HF) and are much loved by the military because they create written information without a skilled operator.

Radio was used to transmit pictures visible as (A telecommunication system that transmits images of objects (stationary or moving) between distant points) television as early as the (The decade from 1920 to 1929) 1920s.
Another use of radio in the pre-war years was the development of detecting and locating aircraft and ships by the use of (Measuring instrument in which the echo of a pulse of microwave radiation is used to detect and locate distant objects) radar (Radio Detecting and Ranging).
AM radio uses (Modulation of the amplitude of the (radio) carrier wave) amplitude modulation, in which louder sounds at the microphone causes wider fluctuations in the transmitter power while the transmitter frequency remains unchanged.

Generally a license is needed to operate a radio transmitter, unless you use a special radio system that is defined not specifically to need any special permit.Electromagnetic radiation is a wave that combines electric and magnetic fields, moving out from its source as an expanding sphere and having waves as the feilds alternate in value.
The function of the radio receiver is to recover the audio signal that was modulated onto the RF carrier at the radio station, and apply it to the speaker, reproducing the sounds of the announcer.
In trunked radio system every radio on the system 'listens' on a control channel, that is a data transmission giving the radios all their instructions.When a call is received, or made, the controlling data transmission tells the radios who wish to speak to each other which channel they need to switch to.

 Simple Radio Transmitters
These pages contain links to schematic diagrams and descriptions of some simple transmitters which can be built with a minimum number of parts and, if built with care, will work very well.
You must have an F.C.C. amateur radio operators license of the proper class to use the transmitters on the air.
The transmitters, except for the 813 oscillator transmitter, are usable only on CW (Morse Code) and are ordinarily unsuitable for any kind of voice work, as they are drawn here.

There were also many at the hospitals who were forcibly placed there because they had declared that a transmitter had been implanted in their heads during an operation, or in conjunction with admittance to the mental hospital.
The chart was created by a printer connected to a radio frequency analyzer computer during measurements from a transmitter in a person’s skull.
Recent developments include pressure transmitters small enough to be placed in the eye, ultrasonic and radio units for free-swimming dolphins, units for tracking wild animals, and pill-sized transmitters of many designs and functions that can operate continuously for several years.

 N.W.S. Birmingham, AL - NOAA Weather Radio   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
To accomplish this, five new transmitters were installed in the Fort Payne area of northeast Alabama, the Guin/Winfield area of northwest Alabama, the Cullman area of north-central Alabama, the Jackson area of southwest Alabama, and the Auburn area of east-central Alabama.
As additional transmitters were added to the overall network, the potential for interference increased, so the National Weather Service began using some of the 'intermediate' frequencies that fall between the primary frequencies.
New transmitters were needed to cover areas where Weather Radio reception was not available but where spacing was too close to stick to the original three frequencies.

 NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MARINE PRODUCTS VIA NOAA WEATHER RADIO
The NOAA Weather Radio network provides voice broadcasts of local and coastal marine forecasts on a continuous cycle.
To expand NOAA Weather Radio coverage in the State of Alaska, the National Weather Service (NWS) and U.S. Coast Guard are partnering to establish a network of low-power five-watt NOAA Weather Radio transmitters at 25 USCG "high" sites located from the Dixon Entrance to Bristol Bay.
For mariners in transit who are using NOAA Weather Radio receivers with SAME capability, it is recommended the radio be set to the 'All County Code Option' to avoid the need to continually reprogram the unit as the vessel moves along the coast to prevent the possibility of missing important warnings.

 OET -- Human Exposure To Radiofrequency Fields From Cellular and PCS Radio Transmitters
While a typical base station could have as many as 63 transmitters, not all of the transmitters would be expected to operate simultaneously thus reducing overall emission levels.
In the case of cellular base station transmitters, at a frequency of 869 MHz (the lowest frequency used), the FCC's RF exposure guidelines recommend a maximum permissible exposure level of the general public (or exposure in "uncontrolled" environments) of about 580 microwatts per square centimeter (µW/cm2), as averaged over any thirty-minute period.
For PCS base station transmitters, the same type of analysis holds, except that at the PCS transmitting frequencies (1850-1990 MHz) the FCC's exposure limits for the public are 1000 µW/cm2.

 Radio Transmitters
The radio transmitter accepts audio or coded intelligence and uses it to modulate one of 280,000 possible operating radio frequencies in the 2.0- to 29.999-megahertz frequency range.
The transmitter has a normal rf output level of at least 100 milliwatts and is designed to be used with an associated rf power amplifier.
When the AM and ssb transmit modes of operation are used, the output from a handset is applied to the transmitter.

 FOXNews.com - Britain OKs Radio Transmitters for iPods - Technology News | News On Technology
Devices such as the finger-length iTrip have been banned in Britain because they are considered radio stations under the country's 1949 Wireless Telegraphy Act.
That means a user must have the right to transmit over an FM frequency and pay royalties for any tunes played on the music players, said Steve Hawkins, a managing director at A.M. Micro Distribution Ltd., which sells the iTrips.
ITrip, made by Griffin Technology for Apple Computer Inc.'s iPod devices, is one of a number of devices meant to allow owners of music players to listen to tunes on their radios.
