The CRTX2 is a rectangular variation of our CRTX1 Audio Surveillance Transmitter. This UHF live audio transmitter is pushing 10mW and is meant for close-range monitoring. 

This difference will not negatively impact the performance of this transmitter, the range will only be subdued by a minimal amount. If you require an audio surveillance transmitter that will be situated in a target location that is not abundant in obstacles, this is the transmitter for you. If you are expecting obstacles such as structures (man-made/natural) then the 20mW CTX2 is a better fit.

  • Measuring only 25mm X 15mm with a thickness of .8mm.
  • This Transmitter comes mounted with a button cell battery holder for a CR2032 battery (CR2032 will provide 25-30 hours of audio surveillance) 
  • No switches or indicator lights.
  • For custom power options for extended operating time, please contact us.

This is a permanent, always-on "hot-microphone", once the battery is inserted the CRTX2 will begin live transmission of ambient and surrounding audio without interruption on the Ultra High-Frequency band. The CRTX2 will broadcast audio over a distance of 100-300 metres in a cluttered urban environment, up to 500 metres with LOS, through concrete, drywall, and thick bush to any UHF receiver, it operates on a single button cell battery.

Use this transmitter to remotely listen to an area of interest that requires discrete acoustic monitoring. We recommend any handheld VHF/UHF/SDR receiver capable of tuning into the VHF/UHF range, this is a standard range in most receivers. Our recommended handheld receiver is the Baofeng UV-5R or the AnyTone AT-318UV. Your CRTX2 will arrive with its specific Tx/Rx frequency noted on its back.
