Jimmie all about convenience and the little Tracker has it. Now just as any it has its faults but we are seeing them more in the Classics than the 1000’s. With the new SMA connector that is now standard on the units where you can plug a full size antenna up to the unit it could be the best of both worlds. We have sold several of each Tracker, Quick Track, Wildlife and all seem to sell about the same, its just a matter of what you want out of what you buy. Hope this helps!!

The tracker takes a little practice

But once you learn its quirks and how to use it, you will be really happy with it. The one draw back I see, is that in close, you have to really study the signal bar, because the back feed from behind you can be almost as strong. Like I say, if the dog is in close. In that case, you want to place the unit directly against your chest, using your body as a shield from behind. Play with it pleasure hunting. Track the dog while they are running a track and you will get used to it that way. You can't practice using the others when they are in the truck, tucked away. I have played with mine enough that I can usually guess with in a hundred yards or so. The biggest advantage is that it is very light weight and you can carry it without even noticing it on your belt. The range is very good. Even if the others have better range, you can whip the Tracker out and get a reading before they get out of range and if you had to walk back to the truck to get the unit out, your dog would have had time to get out of range. Some of the best money I ever spent.

Tracker

I have owned Wildlife, Quicktrack, MN-10, 3 Tracker Maxima's, and 2 Tracker Classics...................I like the Classic better than any....the Maxima's were good about being able to track multiple collars, but the Classic gets a better signal up close........just my thoughts thru trying and using these units....................Tim
