thats sound advice reddog70 when you get used to the pitch yull never look back just remember to put the collar on tight to make sure the ferret dos,nt slip it (iv got the t shirt to prove it )yours in sport chink

The way I learnt is getting someone to hide it, and then finding it, give it a try.

 

The method I use is to scan around on SEARCH, until you get to below 8 foot on the LED's , then swich it to LOCATE, scan around further, following the sound on the locator (high pitch getting closer) then once you are confident you are fairly near, start to turn the PIN POINTER slowly until you hear nothing, wave the locator over the ground, if you still hear nothing then move the PIN POINTER back until you hear the sound and then you should be more or less on top of the ferret.

 

It takes some getting used to, and there will be times when it will appear to be singing at you for sake of it

 

Its quite hard to tell in writing, as it appears some people have different methods, just keep practising!

 

EDIT/PS, Remember that when you are on SEARCH mode that you read the LED's depth from the top and when on LOCATE read from the bottom

Thats the method I use, keep practising too.
