Principle of the UltraSoundGate 116Hn recording system
What are the advantages of Avisoft-UltraSoundGate 116Hn over other bat detectors?
- Increased dynamic range (16 bit A/D conversion instead of 8 or 12 bits).
- Unlimited continuous recording time (the only limitation is the size of the computer harddisk).
- Realtime spectrogram display during recording (can also be disabled).
- Acoustic monitoring through the PC soundcard using the virtual bat detector mode of the Avisoft-RECORDER software (heterodyning or aliasing technique).
- Very rugged full metal housing suited for rough field use.
- Optional GPS data logging by attaching an USB or Bluetooth GPS receiver to the PC.
