[charlie nelly1 142]

not trying to be nosy, im just curious who still uses the old deben mk1, and if they are effective

[B.P.R 2,798]

Aye but my collars f****d so not at the minute lol

[tomano1 80]

Ye every one says there better but I think it's cos they dont no how to use like the one I've got deben Mark 3 m but used mine for the first time last weekend and it worked mint but some the rabbit holes were old fox sets and the locater went out off range for a bit but found her on smaller holes and mine is 16 foot one ATB no1 have u got one ?

The older lads I used to go out with still use them on occasion, like everyone knows though the collars can die on you at the worst times, I prefer the bellman just for reliability more than anything else. But I'd say the old debens are the best for pin point accuracy at the end of a dig if you're struggling to locate a tube...

I'm using a mk3m collar and a mk1 box, no complaints with it - works well enough for me

[digging-deep 518]

used one on a dig to a mates dogs a few seasons ago, the dog entered a big earth we searched high and low for the dog but nothing then i decided to check behind us in the field and about half way down the field i got a mark on the dog at 4 foot, im glad the BnF are out and i cherish it.

i wouldnt comprihend using one, i use a barry vox box and bellman collar, it pinpoints to 0.0 so no worries there, ive got the mk3m for the ferrets but thats all it gets used for!

from that do you mean the barry has the range of the bellman and the pinpoint of the deben? only asking as i am sick of the pinpoint on bellend and flint and need better accuracy

[sweeper 156]

yes mate the barryvox goes down to 0.0 as a pose to 0.4
