You said you got a mk3 box, you got a mk3 collar.... they are the correct combo allready?? I may have read wrong like, but all deben collars will work with any box. Ive used mk3 box with mk1 collar, and vice versa. The only thing is that they will not have the range of the correct collar. And the readings are way off, usually they show the terrier to be further under than it actually is.
