Has anyone else tried it yet?? After seeing the results some friends of mine had with the system i have had to go buy one!! it,s awsome.
Where other transmitters and recievers have failed to gain a signal(we have a cove on the coast down here in devon that seems to be a blank spot even for transmitters several times stronger than the tinyloc)the tinyloc has picked a signal out!
The accurracey(sorry for spelling!!) and speed with wich you can find just the transmitter with no bird or bell attached is brilliant and extremely confidence biulding.
The reciever fits on your belt nicely as it's compact,it's easy to use and the signal pick up is to be honest quite amazing.
A great big thumbs up for Danni too ....i never expected a phone call from spain to check all was ok!!! and sorry for thinking you were one of those annoying cold callers m8!!

Hello.
I use TinyLoc for more than 2 seasones now, with different birds of prey, and I have very good results ( like all my friends around here, using the same telemetry system ). In pest control Iīve flown a female gyr X sacre , she always get very far and was no problem finding her, but the best part is the Precise and Fast search, for exemple I fly a female sparr in covered areas and lots of birds are caught in heavy cover , away, so as I donīt use any bell, just the tinyloc f14 transmitter, I find the sparr very fast.

Thatīs what I like the most, the Precision, it indicates the exact spot where the bird is.

With my tiercel harris I had some problemas, because at the beggining of his first season, he learn to take the transmitter out of his feet and I have losted this way the transmitter in the woods and bushes many times, and at the end of the day observe something is missing.
I like this precision, since i go and looke for the transmitter and find it on the ground in any tipe of terrain with no problem.

Best regards!
Sergiu...

I have tested it in at least a 2 inch deep puddle and it does not seem to affect the signal or accuracy of finding it AND we found the same results from under a metal container!:shock:

:lol: It is very GOOD!:supz:

Still had no chance to do range (I have to find time to get off the moor to do that as a couple of miles is fantastic around here with all the granite in the way), Ive had the reciever out in a lovley Devon drizzle all day to day and it still switched on aftewards (which my Marshall would not always do)

I bought the tinyloc system(wich comes with reciever and one transmitter) and purchased an extra transmitter so i can double pak falcons.One transmitter did not have such a strong signal after testing as the other!!
However....daniel from tinyloc actually phoned me personally after i mentioned it in an email(yes all the way from spain to uk)To say he's already sent a replacement would i be kind enough to send the duff one back!!!
I gave the duff one to my better half to take to work as a definate check(8.5 miles in devon hillside away)and just about got a signal!!!That's the duff one!!??(as the crow flies)So have decided to keep it anyway and am paying for the replacement i recieved within three days!! cos it's good enough for harris hawks.
Sounds like i'm being paid by tinyloc i know....but it is just working so well!!

We did a distance comparison test with:

Marshall RT Standard
Marshall Scout
TinyLoc F22 (216)
TinyLoc F22 (433)

And from that test on the same day using a Marshall receiver on 216 and a TinyLoc on 433, we found:

Marshall RT Standard kicks the backside out of every PowerMax we every used here in the area, it is awesome!

The Scout worked till about 6.45 mile but we had to use the other transmitters to find direction first.

The rest worked clearly over 10.7 miles from Torbay ring Road to Scabacombe Car Park.

The RT was slightly louder than the TinyLocs, but we found the 433 TinyLoc was clearer and easier to find:lol:

Thanks paul, would you say the tiny loc transmitter is about the same as the rt +?

As far as size no it is bigger in fact it is practical the same as the RT Standard and as far as distance or power I have not compared them yet but have a head to head planned sometime in the future, but think someone else will give the results for that before then:D

A great big thumbs up for Danni too ....i never expected a phone call from spain to check all was ok!!! and sorry for thinking you were one of those annoying cold callers m8!!

I'll forward this post directly to my CEO!!!!!!!!! :supz:
