, works the same as a wirel;ess front sensor, the double wireless has a mag on the spokes on the rear wheel and also a second mag fixed to the inside of the crank arm to measure cadence. The distance to the computer is not a problem (might be on a tandem though...)
Both signals are sent to the sensor on the opposite side to the chainstay. its then picked up by the head unit on the bars. theres a ton of different frequencies it can use so the chances of signals getting crossed with another unit the same is minimal.
The cadence function is a great addition for turbos. you can buy extra magnet sensors if you plan on running a turbo specific and off turbo wheel to save changing tyres.
hope this helps.Falcon Sierra - 80's

Cheaper option than a turbo trainer - just go ride outside!0
