Can You Use the Transmitter While Traveling?
The Merlin@home™ transmitter works within your country, but it might not work outside your
country. Check with your doctor before traveling with the transmitter. If he or she agrees that it is
all right, carefully repackage the transmitter in its original packaging. If you are using a telephone
with your Merlin@home transmitter, you may want to purchase an RJ-11 telephone plug adapter
in case you need to plug the transmitter into an older telephone wall jack.
