In our March 2005 Newsletter, we described our Miniature Tag initiative and the planned introduction of a 6 mm diameter transmitter. We now have initial prototypes but have decided to use this season to ensure that all the system components (receivers, hydrophones, processing software, etc.) are in place and evaluated in the field by a number of users before a full roll out. As well, there are some improvements we will be making to improve performance - particularly transmitting life.
