Fast red charlie 2 Posted September 3, 2013 Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 Just wondering if anyone can help me? I'm looking to purchase a new terrier locator, as I've had enough of the Deban terrier finder(with the disco lights and sounds!). The people I know in the terrier world all rave about bellman and flint, you could say its considered the rolls Royce of locators! But someone mentioned ortovox locators(D3 to be precise), I've tried to research this and all I can find info on is the reciever boxes. Do they produce collars? Or a transmitter that you attach to a collar? Or does anyone own one that they can tell how good they are? I would buy a bellman and flint, but they are mega bucks on my sallery, any thoughts appreciated guys? Quote Link to post

kaas 174 Posted September 3, 2013 Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 Ortovox makes collars but they can be difficult to use , imo you better take a b&f collar and a ortovox reciver 2 Quote Link to post

Fast red charlie 2 Posted September 4, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 4, 2013 So would a B&f collar transmit to a ortovox reciever? Would anyone say that the B&f kit isn't accurate, can't be any worse than Deban surely? Quote Link to post

It has all the features of the pulse you would need for terrier work at a fraction of the price. In the past seasons I have used and owned new and old B&F, barryvox element and pulse. Hope this helps Quote Link to post
