    66The ActiveRFID hardware, formerly known as cheaperRFID, can be purchased from Cliste Electronics at [http://cliste.sailwhatcom.com].  I recommend purchasing the USB RSSI receiver, as eventually I intend to provide signal strength based events; and the difference in cost is negligible. I also recommend purchasing transmitters without any sealant, especially if you are purchasing multiple 40m transmitters.  It's much easier to identify each transmitter if you pull all the batteries, and put them back in, one transmitter at a time.  It's easy enough to seal them yourself using plastic dip or liquid electrical tape.
