Jude 85 Posted October 13, 2020 Report Share Posted October 13, 2020 Looking to get a gps tracker soon and was just looking to see what people are finding the best to use. Does the tek 2 work in Britain without maps? Quote Link to post
Bunyhunter 2 Posted October 14, 2020 Report Share Posted October 14, 2020 The tek 2 should work I've gone with the garmin Quote Link to post
FKOF 371 Posted October 14, 2020 Report Share Posted October 14, 2020 I use tek 2, had them few years now. Had a few problems but the costomer service is second to non 3 years warranty. Always gets sorted out! 2 Quote Link to post

Heard a few people saying they take a while to refresh when a dog is on the move, any issues with that? Quote Link to post
Igz 1,445 Posted October 15, 2020 Report Share Posted October 15, 2020 Can’t beat the garmin in my opinion. This be my 5 th season with them and never missed a beat. Gps 4 u Is the company. There in America but also good with customer service if any ever problems or questions. Mine worked straight out the box. I only ever use the compass to tell me how far dogs are if they go out of sight and in what direction. Use mine mainly in the day but if I go to land I don’t know the lye of and depending what I’m Running I sometimes use it lamping. A lot of the time you can just leave receiver in your pocket as it’s only maybe if they have caught and not moving from it they come in real handy. Save a lot of time and wandering what’s going on. If my big dogs not back to me within a few minutes of running something I know he’s done the job or on strong scent so just gives you that piece of mind. Atb Igz 2 Quote Link to post

C.green 3,229 Posted October 15, 2020 Report Share Posted October 15, 2020 I do like the garmin especially if someone shows you how to use some of the features. Quote Link to post
Igz 1,445 Posted October 17, 2020 Report Share Posted October 17, 2020 Refresh straight away mate. I calibrate the compass every now and agin which is really easy but like I say it’s all I’ve used for 4 years and never a problem. Got mates that use them and never really had a problem. Out of about the 8 collars I’ve seen used can’t remember any of us having a problem to be fair. Atb Igz Quote Link to post
