 Poster: A snowHead
|
Hey, this has probably been asked before but I couldn't find a search button. I am looking to buy a transceiver kit and have tried a few different ones out but just wondered if you have preference on a certain one? I.e. The easiest to use (if required)..
Probably just being indecisive and I know that they all do the same job in the event of needing to use one, but just interested to see what people like.. Mammut Barryvox / Pieps / Ortovox etc ?
Thanks

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

ejoy, know nothing about transceivers, but the search button is under 'user Facilities', in the picture top left. It took me ages t find it.

ejoy,
Davidof was just saying at the EOSB that follow SZK's advice and wait until next years models are announced.
as there are a few revelations.
Also, think about ease of use against maximum gadgets, like multiple search etc.
Try and find a course on how to use one and then you might have a better idea of what features you want/need

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

Any news on what new models there might be for next season? I think its time that I invested in some avalanche kit, so I'm interested in what choices I'll have next season.

Hi Rob,
The link you posted has the new models. However I spoke with my local Orto rep and he thought the S1 would not be ready for the start of the season (some people say it will never be ready). SZK liked the new Barryvox Pulse and this seems to be the pick of the new beacons. It was easy to use to me but I didn't get too much time to play with it. Otherwise if you want simple and reliable the Ortovox F1 Focus can be had for a little over 100 quid from some shops and is still liked by many guides.
