BTW, the comment about the balloon reminded me that what you really need

You may have the only known transponder of that variety that has ever been

shared these priceless pearls of wisdom:

-Humm, I forgot about that Jim. However most have a self test button
-that causes the transponder to transmit some pulses. I know my 20

-the test button.
