Dog Tracking with Bluewater Security
Professionals
Tired of searching for
your hunting dog in tall grass or dense cover? Now you can leave the
hunting entirely to him. Introducing Astro, the first high sensitivity
GPS-enabled dog tracking system for hunters and sportsmen. This unique
system pinpoints your dog’s position and shows you exactly where he is,
even when you can’t see or hear him.
Attach Collar and Go
The Astro system includes a bright color-screen handheld GPS device and
a wireless transmitter, called the DC 20. To get started, just take
Astro outdoors and turn on the handheld and transmitter to acquire GPS
satellite signals. Then attach the DC 20 to your dog, either with the
included dog harness or by threading it onto a 1-inch e-collar. 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 20 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 five miles away (depending on terrain). The
system transmits information by line-of-sight, so it reaches farthest in
flat, open territory.
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.
