Samson 2021 9 Posted November 15 Report Share Posted November 15 Right lads what is the most accurate locator available. I had the old barryvox and never had a problem but lost it on a dig . Iv now got the pieps pro but I’m finding the numbers jumping a lot and it’s starting to annoy me is anyone having the same problems and if not which boxes are you lads using good luck for the season Quote Link to post
Chevy Chase 141 Posted November 15 Report Share Posted November 15 Not sure what the model is but I don’t rate the blue pieps box Quote Link to post
gunter 2,688 Posted November 15 Report Share Posted November 15 I reckon they are all more or less the same if you have a steady dog they all do the job really I've owned most of them and the old pieps box is the best thing I've owned it's been smacked with spades the plastic cover broke I glued a plastic cover over it back filled her twice and got her back it's got a full roll of black tape holding it together and it doesn't miss a beat anyway I don't think there's much difference....make sure it's not the dog moving before you shell out a fortune lol 3 Quote Link to post
Samson 2021 9 Posted November 16 Author Report Share Posted November 16 No it’s definitely not the dog moving I’m actually out this morning and it’s jumping at times from 1.5 to 4m the dog definitely hadn’t moved it may need calibrating or whatever 1 Quote Link to post

Samson 2021 9 Posted November 16 Author Report Share Posted November 16 It’s not the dog moving pal the box is literally jumping from 1.5 to 4 m then back it’s been at it at times today the dog is a proper dog it may be a problem with my box or interference I’m beginning to think Quote Link to post
steve t 1,354 Posted November 17 Report Share Posted November 17 I had one that used to do that aswell. Dog never moved but it jumped about like that. Think it needed recalibrated but I ended up buying another box. 1 Quote Link to post
Samson 2021 9 Posted November 17 Author Report Share Posted November 17 That’s what I’m thinking just getting the new barryvox nothing worse than being 5 foot down and stopping for 20 secs because box decides to jump numbers anxiety kicking in when that beep gets slower 1 Quote Link to post
