PitchCom
|
PitchCom is a wireless communication system from a baseball catcher to the pitcher that allows the catcher to request different types of pitches. This system is in lieu of using hand gestures, which have been used since the beginning of baseball but can (and have) been stolen by the opposing team.
According to the PitchCom website: "The PitchCom™ communication system uses a proprietary push-button, player-wearable transmitter that allows players on the field to communicate plays to each other without using physical signs or verbal communication. Every player wearing a receiver actually hears the same instructions in their very own chosen language. The PitchCom™ communication system, a patent-pending technology of PitchCom Sports™, can also be adapted to allow coaches to communicate to players in the same covert manner."
The band of frequencies in which PitchCom operates includes many unlicensed devices. PitchCom itself operates as an FCC Part 15 (unlicensed) device.
The FCC ID for the PitchCom device is 2A3O2-PRA. Its max measured field strength is approximately 87.22 dBuV/m at 3 meters (horizontal pol) and 73.3 dBuV/m in vertical pol, according to its certification test report.
