Re: [RC] Livestock ID - Truman Prevatt

Check out http://www.cls.fr/html/argos/general/newsletter_tout_en.html

A GPS receiver integrated into the ARGOS transmitter and your location is automatically up linked on every revisit (about every 90 minutes). It will track you for about 15 minutes every 90 so if you cut trail do it when the bird is out of view ;-).

BTW most new cell phones have a GPS integrated and when you call 911 your location is passed on.

Hmm, so can they put a GPS tracker in these things? I'll let'em tag my
horses if they'll help me find them when they get away! Sounds like the
perfect solution to our earlier thread. Anybody know of a disease our
dogs carry that might be threatening? If they'll track dogs the old
fellow on our local station that helps find the lost ones will be out of
a job. I can see it now...somebody accuses somebody else of cutting
trail. The ride manager types the horse's ID number into the computer and
we get a GPS tracking course of where he's been. :-)) I grew up with 2
"big brothers"...I'm used to being watched.
