Poster: A snowHead
|
The guys I ski with all have them now which doesn't really help me or them if we ever come into some trouble.
It is time for me to get a transceiver, can anyone recommend one?

Mamut Pulse gets my vote and is what I've got.
The BCA Tracker is popular here too.
In truth, snowforum, it would be best for you to find a way of trying the various models for yourself. It's a bit like an bit of electronic kit - what I like using might not be what you like using.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

I liked my tracker when I got it a couple of years ago, but the technology has moved on since then.

I like the standard Barryvox which I have, but would go for the pulse at the moment. The S1 is the only ortovox I would touch.

BCA tracker is cheap and easy to use. if you don't mind spending a little more, get the mammut pulse.

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

tracker is easy for single burials but very confusing when used during multiples IMO... BGA recon very few searches are for multiple so optimised for easy single use and a multiple search feature taked on. horses for courses i guess.

I don't find the Tracker hard for multiple burials, although I have only practised with 4 buried transceivers at the most. It is still very easy with only 2, 3 or more can be a little hard if they are close together.
