Moorsman 17 Posted January 16, 2010 Report Share Posted January 16, 2010 anyone cheched out the freeride box by pieps. granted it might not be as fast to use as origanal,but it looks good value for money. Quote Link to post
higgins 75 Posted January 16, 2010 Report Share Posted January 16, 2010 Can't see any thing advanced here,there is no new technology apart from reducing size to a handheld mobile phone,the Ortovox S1 alraedy does this and much more Ortovox S1, Higgins Quote Link to post
yorkshire 151 Posted January 16, 2010 Report Share Posted January 16, 2010 how much ? Quote Link to post
TRUE SAXON 108 Posted January 16, 2010 Report Share Posted January 16, 2010 seen these in a camping shop and they seemed pretty smart even though not as high range as the one used by bellman they still go up to 40m which is by far good enough i have just told a young lads who comes out with me to get one and get a bellman collar to go with he will saves about £120 if he shops around Quote Link to post
dog fox 16 Posted January 16, 2010 Report Share Posted January 16, 2010 it only has 1 antenna and the bellman has 3 antenna which is why the bellman is more accurate ,might be ok though but dont get suckered in you get what you pay for Quote Link to post

FightTheBan 1,147 Posted January 18, 2010 Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 Agree with Matulkoh, barryvox pulse gets my vote. You get what you pay for, if your in terriers for the long run you might as well spend your money wisely, instead of trying to save a few pound. Cheers FTB Quote Link to post
atuddy 179 Posted January 18, 2010 Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 good topic lads Quote Link to post
Bryan 1,362 Posted January 22, 2010 Report Share Posted January 22, 2010 I haven't used or even held a freeride BUT, the old deben grey box had just the one antaenna and was very accurate. The 3 antenna are needed to give a digital reading not accuracy. Bryan Quote Link to post
