mishmash, presume sourcing them via the USA is OK though? Looking for 2, for me and son - any thoughts on whether we should go for Tracker 2, wait for Tracker 3 or go for something else?

nothing wrong with a T1.... still a good beacon.
however if you use it next to a T2 you will see the benefit of the 3rd antenna and faster processor.
as far as I am aware the T3 is still due at the end of this year (2013) in time for next season.
though I may be wrong.

^ main difference on the T3 will be a mark function for multiple burials.
will apparently retail for closer to £300.
BCA make some great beacons - though for slightly lower prices it worth checking out the newer ARVA models.

And love to help out and answer questions and of course, read each other's snow reports.

Funnily enough we just contacted Anatom, who are the UK distributors of BCA, about the T3 yesterday. Their reply was the T3 should be delivered "end of October, beginning of November, but it's not set in stone yet." Hmm. Hi livetoski, hope you have a good season.

You know it makes sense.

It seems that there will be no Tracker 3 for the 2013-14 season.
Posted on the snowshepperd.co.uk website "BCA and K2 Sports have informed us they are not launching the T3 for this season but it will be available for the 2014 2015 season, we are sure that while this is huge dissapointment for many, BCA are doing this in the best interests of the customer becuase the unit is not 100% as they would like it."

While you are there , as it where, a couple of BCA Questions on the Float bags :
Last year I read that they were going to sell "bag only" options in 2013/14 as the internal gubbins is actually swappable - Any news or verification on this? (I think it was in the Dealer support marketing material and I saw it online somewhere) .
Is there a UK approved refill network ( odd I know, but I don't want to waste time on holiday arranging a refill!)
Thanks!
