The accuracy is great and you get good signal in the forest so it is possible to almost always know where the dogs are. I first saw this system used in Norway for elk (moose) and it is obvious when the dog is working a hunting pattern or if the dog is chasing (travelling only in a straight line). It also tells you if the dog is stopped (bay
