You can also have as many triggers as you want triggering on ore more cameras, as long as they're on the same channel. Thought Idea: Have 2 receiving radios (w/ trigger device) on the same channel, one with CTCSS and one without it. Send a signal with a corresponding CTCSS, and both will trigger, send one without the correct CTCSS or none, and only one camera will trigger.

I use time-lapse for my research on wildfire behavior and plume dynamics. I have been looking into the pocket wizard, but I need long distance. I also need to be able to have the camera trigger at specific intervals...1 sec or 2 sec. I would prefer much faster. Can I use one master radio to trigger two or three cameras? Any thoughts on this application would be appreciated. Thanks! This is exactly what I need. I use time-lapse for my research on wildfire behavior and plume dynamics.
