Rob at MURS
Radios mentioned that he was able to acquire a number of the Dakota Alert
MURS Motion Alert Transmitters (MATs)
at a discount. Instead of the usual price of $99, he now has them at $89
each (plus shipping.) If you already
have MURS capable radios (even from other manufacturers) or a scanner you
can still receive the voice alerts from these security devices. If the MAT
detects motion across its path it transmits a voice alert (such as "Alert
Zone One") on a specific MURS frequency. These devices make great driveway,
footpath, gate, or game trail alarms and can help to secure your property
by alerting you to intruders.
