Product Overview

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.The Astro system includes a bright color-screen handheld GPS device and a wireless transmitter, called the DC 30. To get started, just take Astro outdoors and turn on the handheld and transmitter to acquire GPS satellite signals. Then attach the DC 30 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.As often as every five seconds, your dog's DC 30 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.
