Garmin Astro is specifically designed for hunters, but works really well for folks running other kinds of dogs that require tracking.
The new rugged Astro DC 30 collar / transmitter is a complete stand alone unit. The DC 30 has a top mounted, low profile GPS antenna and a side mounted "whip" antenna for the radio signal that sends the location information to the Astro handheld unit.
The DC-30 doesn't require the use of any additional counterweight, ecollar, or vest to keep the unit on the dog. Just buckle it on and go!
Built tough enough to handle the rough terrain where your dog hunts.
Track your dogs in heavy cover without making a sound.
Know where he is and what he's up to!
HOW IT WORKS: The Garmin Astro system consists of two components: a Handheld GPS unit (Astro 220) which looks like a walkie-talkie and a Dog GPS Collar Unit (Astro-DC-30) with a whip style antenna that transmits your dog's location via radio signal.
The Dog GPS computes its location from the GPS satellites and detects whether your dog is moving, on point, or treed. The Dog GPS sends that info to your Handheld GPS every 5 seconds. The Handheld GPS plots the exact location of your dog on a map, shows distance, and whether your dog is moving, on point or treed. On your Handheld GPS, the MAP SCREEN shows your location, your dog's location, and the path that your dog has hunted.
