History

Xanatos plants a radio transmitter on Goliath in 1994.

Xanatos removes a radio transmitter from Goliath (that he had planted earlier that evening) in 1995.

By 1996, Goliath still hasn't learned to stop allowing strange humans to touch him. Let's hope that in 1997, he didn't let that one guy at the Gathering of the Gargoyles Guild hug him.

In 1994, David Xanatos planted a tracking device on Goliath's back which allowed his commandos to track the gargoyle through Central Park. Elisa Maza discovered the tracking device and planted it on a stray dog to distract the goons. She later tracked the logo on the device and discovered that Xanatos was behind the attack in the park.

On Halloween, 1995, Xanatos planted a second radio transmitter on Goliath's back and tracked the gargoyle to Bleeker Street. ("Eye of the Beholder")

In October, 1996, a third radio transmitter was planted on Goliath by Robyn Canmore who used it to track the gargoyle back to the Clock Tower before destroying it. Lexington saved the transmitter and used it, twice, to track the Hunters. It's not known whether this transmitter was also manufactured by the Scarab Corporation but it did lack a logo.
