  1. Sportdog 2.0


    Sportdog 2.0 tracker. Handset and collar, boxed with all paperwork chargers etc. Excellent condition. Hardly used, I've relocated and don't keep the big dogs anymore so it's sat in box gathering dust.  These are retailing at £750 on the sportdog website. Might be cheaper elsewhere but I haven't looked.  Anyways I'm wanting £350. can post next day special delivery.

    It's just what I'm used too, boys got the brick , had a few issues with them, pieps always been faultless... I find the new b an f rechargeable collars not so good, I've had 2 stop working not hold a charge within in first 6 months. Any one use a different collar??? 

    Was using the Ortovox collars for a while.....sold them along with Ortovox box (had two Ortovox boxes) still got one. I used to wrap the collar in tape as they held the transmitter in velcro and I was always feared it would give if snagged or got chewed.. they were as accurate as any of the bellmans and still in good working order when I parted with them.  Certainly had a longer working life than the rechargeable bellmans, which is what I have at the moment. The bellman collars work with my Remaining Ortovox box and my mammut pulse but as you know yourself they dont last long.

    we are using the garmin astro 320 with collars.I like them. but im not as impressed as i was at first use.. Once we realised that the tracking collars dont communicate with the hand set via gps but by radio signal. the gps is for pinpointing your position on the gps map. So basically just like any radio signal it can and does drop out when you lose line of sight....dogs go over the tops.. .. drop into a hollow...round the edge of a crag... etc..which happens a lot in our hunt country. Still they are a useful addition but not the be all and end all as some seem to think.

    did you get the longer aerial with it? i am in n wales and find it picks up my beagles in most situations that the small one doesn't i also bought an aftermarket fold down telescopic one on ebay :thumbs:

    Yes we have the longer one but I will take a look at the aftermarket one. Cheers.

    not been on here for quite some time until recently...I see the hilarity is as good as ever....1200 quid for 3 mongrels :icon_eek: original poster calls himself thecharlie...should be called "a propercharlie". good luck with that post mate.... :laugh:

    A fully trained bushing terrier for that amount of money is a snip,you only need to look at the price of terrier pups now,then to train it up to a useful standard makes it an easier and cheapish option for the right person.Id not pay for a terrier,with 20 years of breeding,that failed to enter,to many bushing packs that type of terrier would be worth its weight in gold.

     

     

    a fool and his money are easily parted.

    Ive just recieved astro 320 and T5 collars from GPS4us.com. Mine came via fedex but i didnt have any additional charges to pay at this end? Top bit of kit it is. Im very happy with it.

     

    It's comes in the post a few weeks later mate

     

    well if thats the case it wont be getting paid mate....i didnt sign for the delivery. :thumbs:

  10. Ive just took delivery of the Astro 320 and T5 collars bought them online from GPS4US.com in usa. plus Uk all area map. expensive. but they work staright out the box as they change the firmware to work over here before they ship them. Ive got to say they are fckin brilliant and in my opinion its money well spent. They have already proved there worth the second time out trying them, guided us up through dense forest uphill to find the dog with his quarry almost 3/4 mile away....... We hunt hill/mountain and dense pine forests. these have really removed that worry when the dogs are gone out of site for lengthy periods of time. And lead you straght to them when they have overtook their quarry.
