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 Maxima receiver is the most technically advanced dog retrieval system on the market today. It is a fully synthesized receiver, which can track up 1 frequency band (up to 1000 channels). This system allows you to pre-program up to 5 collars into memory. Additional collars can be tracked by manually entering their band and frequency into the system.

It tracks Tracker collars or any other brand of collars that you purhcase or may already own - simply input your collars, as well as your friends' and hunting partners' collars. It's quick and easy!

To use, simply unfold the antennas and turn it on. Choose the self-adjusting "automatic mode" for rapid direction finding or if the signal is week or you need more precision, choose the "manual mode". Manual mode allows you to control the gain for fine-tuning direction. There is a computer processor to control operations in both the automatic and manual modes.

The large LCD and excellent speaker provide you with two methods to determine the direction to your collars. The back-lighting system for the LCD allows easy day or night use and the only power requirement is two nine-volt batteries. An automatic shut-off after five minutes assures a long battery life. 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, and 3 years on the electronics (you may also choose to extend the 3 year warranty to 5 years for a one-time $50 upgrade fee).

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).

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).
