wheaten 47 Posted December 22, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 22, 2016 No problem at all to be fair ! Just heard the tec 2 is better plus you get 3 years warranty garmin shit for us in uk Quote Link to post
wheaten 47 Posted December 23, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2016 Well think I'd rather have communication with dog than better map! The sportdog unit uses two different type of satellites I'm led to believe! A friend of mine is starting to sell the sportdog tec 1 and 2 units and also the trainer collars anyone interested let me know and I'll pass you on Quote Link to post
wheaten 47 Posted December 23, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2016 I believe the maps are straight forward just waiting for my unit to arrive ! Tec1 with how many collars Quote Link to post

Still got the lurchers and terriers aswell, gyp and flash are still going but there getting on a bit now. I read the article in cmw about your hound cross, looks a beast we should sort a day out I'd love to see it work. 1 Quote Link to post
Lee_H 64 Posted December 24, 2016 Report Share Posted December 24, 2016 Had chance to try the sport dog tec 1 over the last few days and so far I'm impressed, it seems to do the job just as well as the garmins, build quality feels good, it's never lost connection with the dogs so far and when you get used to the tracking screen it works quite well. It's a lot more basic than the garmin system but that's what I like about it there is no need to update or download any thing which is good for me as I'm useless with anything like that. I haven't had any long hunts to test it properly yet but I should over the next few days. 2 Quote Link to post
