A lot is dependent on cover where you're at...if you're in the mountains it's very good....if you're right in the city with a lot of buildings it's good. If you're in rural Maine and it's not mountainous I'd expect a bit more but realistically I don't think more is needed for hunting with beagles. Enjoy your Alpha, it's an awesome tracking system. :nod:
