WILF 48,368 Posted October 10, 2010 Report Share Posted October 10, 2010 The D3 would be out by about 0.2 but that reading on your box is out by a full meter so that is pretty far out for such a good bit of kit, may be worth checking if you fell the need to do such a thing......which you probably dont! lol Quote Link to post
FightTheBan 1,147 Posted October 10, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2010 Out by a meter. If your working in meters. Which it isn't. Quote Link to post
Squirrel_Basher 17,101 Posted October 10, 2010 Report Share Posted October 10, 2010 I think the finer points of depth and its lack of is lost on FTB.By the way ,a metre is a yard and 3 inches if we are splitting hairs .A reading of 2.1 that was really 3 1/2 foot would be cause for celebration on the rock we have to contend with in places .Dont let it stop you posting though mate ,just dont mention the depth .

WILF 48,368 Posted October 10, 2010 Report Share Posted October 10, 2010 Out by a meter. If your working in meters. Which it isn't. Rather splitting hairs, but I think you will find it IS working in metric....it wouldnt be calibrated in any other way Quote Link to post

FTB Oh ffs, no one is calling you mate just trying to be helpful and saying get your kit checked, your dogs life depends on it. And for the record, I thought it was a good post by you Quote Link to post
FightTheBan 1,147 Posted October 10, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2010 Aye it was an alright post. But uploading those pics took feckin ages and it will be my last. I appreciate the constructive advice, but the smarmy comments by people who think they are better than you after never meeting you really go over me. Can't understand it. I have used that box on dozens of digs without a single blip and will continue to do so. Try not to get too hung up on the nitty gritty and enjoy working your dogs and sharing your experiences. I always treat other people as I wish to be treated myself. Over and out. FTB Quote Link to post
twotone 6 Posted October 11, 2010 Report Share Posted October 11, 2010 I've an ortovox collar and reading 1 on my box = 18" same reading = 1mtr with bellman collar Quote Link to post

FightTheBan 1,147 Posted October 11, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2010 Aye he wasn't trying to argue. Calling me a bullshitter and internet hero is his way of being social. Lol FTB Quote Link to post
JR Yipp 111 Posted October 11, 2010 Report Share Posted October 11, 2010 Aye he wasn't trying to argue. Calling me a bullshitter and internet hero is his way of being social. Lol FTB not that it matters, but that comment wasent aimed at you, it was ment that most folk on here know f**k all but spout out, some of us know about the game and are only trying to help. i had read some of your previous post and you seemed a bright well round kind of guy who may think about what people post.... as you say, "once bitten twice shy" pm sent either way.
