locaters

Not sure which locater set to get as i have read alot of different views on all three. All three have there plus points and there minus points the trouble is choosing the right one. Some swear by the old mk1 and mk2 but do not like the mk3. Now i`ve read alot of people say they now actually prefer the updated mk3. Any other views that i have not heard mentioned that could sway my thinking would be helpfull cheers folks.

Never used the MK 1 or 2, the old grey boxes, but have used the MK 3 , but seen a MK 1 working 2 weeks ago, spot on.

Only problem being, when we came to a wire fence, it went haywire .

The new MK 3, does not do this.

I have recently upgraded from mk1 to mk3 but havent used it in the field yet but Im fairly chuffed so far. So I would have to say mk3.

The MK1 was okay, but now to have it repaired you're talking lots of cash. The MK2 was rushed out before it was tried and tested and found to be completely useless as battery life was to short. The MK3 is fine, takes a little to get used to but does the job.

I don't know if it still stands but originally Deben offered anyone that purchased the MK2 a free upgrade to MK3 standard.

Thanks for the reply folks think i might go for the mk3. Have just been talking to a couple of lads this morning who ferret and hawk who live not far from me and they have all upgraded to the mk3 and they are pretty pleased with it. Once again thanks and good luck for the season
