The transmitter/receiver contains cellular/wireless/mobile electronics and programming and may be dialed similarly to the dialing of any cellular phone. The transmitter/receiver is provided with an automatic answer means which enables connection between the cellular/wireless/mobile network and the transmitter/receiver without intervention from the person whose environment is to be monitored.
