Just acquired a Stanley Auto Trans Invisible garage door opener
transmitter.

On what RF frequency do these transmit?

I gather that they are typically hooked up to car's high beam which
when flashed on, will, at very short range, activate certain garage
door receivers to open the door.

A reply will be much appreciated.

It should be marked on the label.

Gee thanks Michael: Yes it is, (along with all the 'Complies with FCC

etc. etc.) it's 310 mhz. Had to get my jewellers X10 Loupe to read it
it though. The whole label with all that on the back of the unit is
only about half by one inch.
Now to look for some sort of receiever; I need it for something else
not garage door opening!
Thanks. Terry

You will probably have to have the matching Stanley receiver, because
of the encoding they use. If it isn't over 30 years old, it will use a
digital code to identify itself to the receiver. Older units used a
simple audio tone on an FM carrier.

Thanks again. There are only two wires into the unit black and red so
presumably 12 volt. So probably a fixed code? Unless there is another
way to program their output.
This was one of a whole bunch in the surplus basket at a store for $3
apiece!
No special identification on any of them! My original idea was to
amplitude modulate the signal in order to send audio between two
houses! But I would need receiver for 310 megahertz with an audio
output.
Other numbers are;
"US patent 5,140,171 and Part No. 4300".
"FCC ID 9K UHT-11" and "Canada 164 101 233"
I'll keep looking.

Hmm, I really thing it would need a hand control or you could

do what I have in my car's mirror and program that one.
