Overview |
Tired of searching for your hunting dog in
tall grass or dense cover? Now you can leave the hunting entirely to
him. Astro is the premier high sensitivity GPS-enabled dog tracking
system for sporting dogs. This unique system pinpoints your dog’s
position and shows you exactly where he is, even when you can’t see or
hear him.
See Your Dogs’ Every Move
The Astro system includes a bright color-screen handheld GPS device and
the rugged, orange polyurethane DC 40 collar. The collar accommodates
most e-collar receivers — eliminating the need to put two separate
collars on a dog. Plus, Collar Lock creates a four-digit PIN number that
helps prevent others from seeing your dog’s whereabouts — a useful
feature in field trials to ensure that an Astro is used only as a
recovery tool when a dog in competition becomes lost.
To get started, just take Astro outdoors and turn on the handheld and
transmitter to acquire GPS satellite signals. Then attach the DC 40 to
your dog. Now you’re ready to turn him loose — no other setup required.
Track Dogs in Dense Cover
As often as every five seconds, your dog’s DC 40 transmits his position
to your handheld, and you can see his current location and a trail of
where he’s been on the Map page of your handheld. Switch over to the Dog
Tracker page to view a compass pointing to your dog’s location as well
as his current status: whether he’s running, sitting, on point or
treeing quarry. Astro can also sound an alarm to let you know instantly
when your dog goes on point.
Astro boasts a high-sensitivity GPS receiver that can track your dog’s
position even in the densest cover. You can track up to ten dogs at one
time with Astro, at a distance of up to seven miles away (depending on
terrain). The system transmits information by line-of-sight, so it
reaches farthest in flat, open territory.
Count Your Coveys
After you’ve captured your quarry, mark the exact spot with Astro’s
Covey Counter™, a special waypoint that tells you the exact location,
time of day and elevation where you found your prey, as well as the
number of birds you flushed and took from that location. Astro lets you
save other special waypoints, such as "Truck" and "Lodge," so you can
save the location of these places quickly and easily for each hunt.
Astro also offers special waypoint icons to represent food plots, tree
stands and other hunting-related points.
Experience Full-featured GPS
Astro shines when you’re out on the hunt, but it also excels in getting
you back to your truck at the end of the day, or even back home again.
In fact, the Astro handheld has all the features of Garmin’s top-line
handheld outdoor devices, including a barometric altimeter, electronic
compass, microSD™ card slot, celestial information, area calculator and
rugged, IPX7 waterproof exterior. With optional detailed city street
maps, you can search for over 6 million points of interest and create a
route on roads with exact turn-by-turn directions. |
