My buddy, Steve Kelly says that they will not be available until mid July. I hope to have one in my hot little hands to field test for them. I have so wanted this product for several years now. I hunt three to four dogs by myself and get tired of "collaring" dogs.
Adios,
Gary

Here's a thread on the unit that was on here awhile back:

Basically the big issue for most who have used the Garmin is that the Sportdog unit does not have map card capability.

the map card could be a draw back, but he memory shouldn't be. who cares where your dog treed last night. i want to see where they are now, not yesterday.

People will buy them though I can't imagine why. They cost considerably more than a Garmin, they have fewer of the features that coonhunters want and you can put your TriTronics receiver on the Garmin strap giving you a combo that weighs the same as the Sportdog Combo. Carry the Combo in a UKC hunt and you are not only scratched but possibly barred (rule 20). Really, the system is a non-starter but people will buy them anyway.

I think once the bugs are worked out and the shine wears off the new invention, it would be something too have.. But them add a collars better come down some, or I'll stick with my Garmin..

With Garmin buying out Tritronics, I'll bet they will have something pretty cool on the market in a short time. I do like the idea of having one collar that performs two functions.
I still want to see what Sport Dog has to offer.
Adios,
Gary

I would have never beleived 25 yrs. ago when I started coonhunting and was chasing dogs with a switch as a trash breaker. And had an oil funnel stuck in my ear as a tracker, and a rope with a snap for a dog lead, and of course a handheld flashlight.... that coonhunting would have came this far.. LOL.. I have to admitt, a fellar sure can get a lot more turnouts in a night than we used too with this new technology.. :-)

Once again Jim, they missed your point. They are illegal in all registries. Maybe this is easier.........
