Whether you are running a hound or a pointing dog, being able to locate your dog in the field is imperative. Tracker receivers have distinguished themselves as powerful yet portable radio direction finding systems that can be conveniently employed in the field rather than left in the vehicle due to size and weight limitations.

The new Tracker Classic System is available as a "Single" or a "Double". The Classic Single comes with a one-channel receiver capable of supporting one collar. It also includes a belt holster, carrying case, all required batteries, and one Tracker collar of your choice. You select the Tracker collar that best suits your needs (Price includes Strike or Supra Lite collars. Intelo collar costs an additional $20). This Classic Double comes with a two-channel receiver and two collars.

The Classic System features a "Near Button" for exact pinpoint tracking, and a collar fine-tuner! To use, simply unfold the antennas and turn it on. The LED Lights are color-coded (green, yellow, and red) so you know exactly how strong your signal is and the high-quality speaker provides a second method to determine the direction of your collars. This unit offers easy tracking for day or night use. The only power requirement is two nine-volt batteries (included) which are user-replaceable. The patented, fold down antennas, the splash proof design, and the CNC milled body allow this system to come with a 10 year warranty on the body and antenna, 3 years on the electronics, and 1-year on all collars.

The FCC rates the system as 12 miles line of sight, with 2-1/2 to 4 miles normal in the Ozark Mountains, and 4 - 7 in rolling mid-western terrain, and the full 12 miles in areas like West Texas. Like all Tracker receivers, the Classic is lightweight (14 ounces), and folds for easy storage into a holster or a pocket (cordora belt holster included).

Available Transmitter Collars
	Strike: Multipurpose collar for both hounds and pointing dogs. Remove magnet to activate. Comes standard with Tree Switch. The Motion Sensor (point mode) option is available instead of the Tree Switch on a special-order basis (no charge for this feature). This lightweight, sleek, single antenna collar turns on/off with a magnet key and a flashing LED indicates collar is on. AFTCA approved for field trials.
	Supra Lite: Used primarily for pointing dogs, beagles and other smaller breeds. All collars include a motion sensor (point mode). The battery-warning signal sends a special signal to the receiver, allowing the hunter to change batteries before the next use. Primary collar for field trials (AKC and AFTCA approved).
	Intelo: Powerful transmitter primarily used for long range tracking of hounds. Comes standard with Tree Switch option. It is also available by special-order with a Bark Indicator feature ($20 upgrade). The 6.5 ounce transmitter is encased in an aluminum shell, and turns on/off with a magnet (included). The battery-warning signal sends a special signal to the receiver, allowing the hunter to change batteries before the next use.

Which system do I need?
If you need to track one dog, the Classic Single system might be the best choice. However, if you often hunt in unfamiliar territory, or in poor weather conditions, a second collar left at your vehicle can help you find your way back. The Maxima is the best choice if you need to track 3 or more dogs, if you have older collars you wish to use, or if you want to program your buddies' collars into your receiver.
