The QT™-600 tag transmitter operates within the AM broadcast band (600–1600 kHz). The

specific transmit frequency is carefully chosen for each installation to avoid harmful

interference with licen sed emitters. AM broadcast signals would inte rfere with tracking and

must be avoided. The transmit frequency is set at the factory and cannot be changed by the

user. The QT™-600 tag transmitter is microprocessor-controlled and powered by a

rechargeable lithiumiion battery. The tag cannot transmit while being recharged. The

antennas are self-contained within the plastic enclosure, and cannot be modified or changed

by the user.
