I am not aware of such limitation. Can you please point out the document you have seen with this information?

pegla00 Member OP P Join Date Jul 2015 Location Toronto Posts 10 Oct 20, 2020 #8 You are both right, there seems to be no limit to the number of tags, the site says transmission speed up to 1000 tags/sec. Thank you.
