which new telemetry should i buy

[Heike]

Hello all
Which telemetry system should i consider to buy new, i have a female harris and a european eagle owl, both ready to enter soon.

Depends on how much you want to spend!!!
Luksander is good but has to come from USA and a bit 'bulky' receiver even with new antenna.
Go for the best you can afford, if your not flying 2 birds at the same time you only want a few channels and one transmitter would do you too.

Hi

I use falconry electronic. not the cheepest but no where the most expensive (about £600 with one transmiter i think). service is very good and very fast but at the end of the day it depends what money you have.

Hi,

I can only recommend what I have used - I use a Martin Jones Falcon Telemetrics System was fortunate to get one second-hand a couple of years back! Operates on a 173.2 frequency, 3 channel system which will pick up 3 transmitters independently. The housing of the receiver is very robust and strong! which when out in the field and is dropped or left on top the car accidentally is a bonus.

The system was recommended to me by some mates, who have used them for years and have found it to be a very good and reliable system. The 3 channel receivers are being discontinued and I think they only have a few left in stock! They'll continue to provide service, repairs etc and make the transmitters!

As the system is also made within the UK they provide an excellent service to.

They also sell another receiver - worth contacting them, there very helpful to!

Interesting.... I would of though Marshall Telem would be the choice. If you have the money anyways!!
But i would say Lucksander comes really close to the Marshall Telem??...

lucksander..would help if i could spell it ...help even more if I werent blathered on red wine.... just tie a long bit of string to the jesses with a big weight on and when its gone too far it will stop and youll never lose the bird or need to shell out for telemetry....if you take this seriously you dont deserve to have a parrot, never mind owt else....
i dont expect you to take it seriously but someone would have picked up on it and assumed it was serious advice... gotta stop drinking...
