noony2802 8 Posted January 7, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2014 Might look Into the tracker 2 Quote Link to post
snizle06 202 Posted January 7, 2014 Report Share Posted January 7, 2014 We had a shallow dig the other day of .8 on box when we got down we were way of to the side of the dog maybe 2 foot off. My confidence is fading in the pieps box will be upgrading to something more accurate. Mine is about 5 years old has anybody's packed in Quote Link to post
Ginny Spinner 455 Posted January 8, 2014 Report Share Posted January 8, 2014 Same mate only on Sunday we had a dig .6 and we dug to the back end of the dog it's and absolute night mare just means tunneling in. Think I'm going to go for the barryvox pulse was out with a lad last week he highly recommended it Quote Link to post
STRANGER 948 Posted January 8, 2014 Report Share Posted January 8, 2014 If you dug down to the back of the dog at .6 there's a good chance the dog moved forward or your using the box wrong. Quote Link to post
noony2802 8 Posted January 8, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2014 Anyone used bca tracker 2 Out of mammut, ortovox, pieps sport etc it looks a good but? Can anyone find it cheaper than £250 I like the fact it updats fast, looks strong, is simple, will beep but also has a mute function, Bright numbers etc Just looking to try and find a price cheaper than £250 Quote Link to post
TOPPER 1,809 Posted January 8, 2014 Report Share Posted January 8, 2014 find the thread i put up on the bca tracker 2 theres some links on there i think the french was the cheapest at £150 the trackers a good bit of kit but i still say the barryvox is the dogs nuts Quote Link to post
TOPPER 1,809 Posted January 8, 2014 Report Share Posted January 8, 2014 £173 on ebay for the bca tracker 2 Quote Link to post
noony2802 8 Posted January 8, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2014 Hi topper have you got a link for that £170 I was speaking to snowsafe earlier and they say my best bet would be ortovox 3 plus Quote Link to post
swanseajack 227 Posted January 9, 2014 Report Share Posted January 9, 2014 Hey Noony where in Devon are you, (are you ginger?) Quote Link to post
noony2802 8 Posted January 9, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2014 It is accurate corky John, I use it all the time when out on my own and I've even used when my mates bellman packed in ( dozy b*****d forgot to check the battery's ) . My one beef with it is the switch can go on on its own so your best off taking out the battery's out until your using it, but I don't like the way the switch sticks up on the bellman either. The best thing of all about the free ride is you get a gay bumbag with it, to camp you right up and it only takes one aa battery which is good. I like the look of it and the price Only downside I can see is slightly slower to update, less warranty , and not backlight so mught struggle in low light, What's the case like? Anything like strong or shower proof? Josh Quote Link to post

noony2802 8 Posted January 10, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2014 Hi mate no sorry Just to update you chaps I ordered the updated ortovox 3 plus today and a bellman collar hoping to try then out next Saturday & subday ? £325 total price so saved £60 and I think I've got a smaller more accurate steady box but time will tell Quote Link to post
