FUJI 17,187 Posted March 13, 2017 Report Share Posted March 13, 2017 Garmin Astro 220 or 320 Stone Rose,easy to work bud,easiest way i find is just leave the receiver on the "dog" setting which is basically a screen showing a compass with an arrow/s pointing in the direction of your dog/s and showing exactly how far away they are up to a distance of 7km i think it is,they work off GPS so satellites in the sky and are very accurate upto about 10 yards or so..They are a fantastic bit of kit mate 2 Quote Link to post
Teckers 657 Posted March 13, 2017 Report Share Posted March 13, 2017 Theyr handy bit of kit fp iv seen them in action both with hounds and lampin and they definitely worth having we had a little incident this afternoon with a member off here we hit something off and all dogs apart from one came back we called and searched the mountain and moors for hours but no such luck got back to the truck hoping he made his way back but no joy and pitch black, cut a long story short luckily dog was found after a few phone calls and he was found miles away in a quarry happy ending but could of been so different, I think he's investing in one now ? 1 Quote Link to post
