Try changing your color setup of your astro. There are several different color patterns. You also have a day and night mode. Play around with them and see what is best for you.

BRUCE HAD BIRDSEYE LOADED ON MY ALPHA WAS WORKING GREAT THEN IT DISSAPPEARED I CHECKED THE CHIP AND STILL NOTHING ANY IDEAS

.

Select map then menu then restore defaults and see if it comes back

last 2 times i ben out ive had to recalabrate my 320 handheld the dog is out in frt of you it shows the dog behind you is there a reson it is getting outa whack

.

I think in the instruction book somewhere it mentions temperatures change have an effect on the compass. I know during the winter that are more questions on this subject. Just not sure if it is the weather or just more people using them during the winter.

thanks bruce hasssn't been much of a temp change been really warm talkin to a young boy this moronin he said if im carrying my lead with the chain part across my chest that wil intefere with it but the other nite i had the nylon part in frt still did it

Also if you use a folding antenna and fold it down over the side that at times has an effect on them. Especially the long black on.

Watch your dog from the map page and I think you will be a lot happier. Merry Christmas!

My 320 updates every 5 sec, I thought it was every 3 sec before, can't find how to change it, is there a way? Thanks

When I mark my truck on my Astros 320 it won't mark it on the map. It use to have a little truck picture there now nothing. Is there anyway I can fix that which is no big deal but last night I was in a new woods and got turned around and walked the wrong direction just cause I couldn't mark the truck

I think yall are going to tell me to buy another collar.... but, we bought two referbished dc30 collars, we updated both them and my astro, but one one collar picks up and the other loses connection after about 15 yards. any suggestions?

collar antenna caused mine to lose signal short distance
replaced and no problem since

Even if it doesn't mark your truck you should lay a track wherever you walk just like a dogs track. Just follow it back. Do a master reset and things should change for you.

Master reset?

I went to a hunt last night and marked the truck how do I see the distance I walked? I can see the distance my dog traveled.

.

You can see the distance your dog traveled from the dog information page.
S far as truck distance it is easier to see that distance when you are there
How to do it later depends on if you have an alpha or Astro and what points are still on your Astro
