Alpha 100 problems

Post by TOBY »

Is it just me or are the alpha 100 tt/15
Nothing but problems all hunting season.
Loses communications with the collars half the time. Touch screen on the handheld is always messing up.

Haven't had any problems at all. Have you updated the handheld and collars. There have been several updates since they came out.

I was actually just thinking the other day how great it is that I have never once dropped a signal or had an issue with the collars like I did with my dc 40.
God isn't real, Beer is good and people are crazy, there I fixed it.

Yea mine was working great for 6months no problems. Then one day it just seemed to start acting funny. Loosing signal,cutting off in the middle of hunts,touch screens messing up. So I did the updates,master reset. Tried everything but nothing worked.
Might have been something I done or maybe a internal problem with the handheld....whatever the case Garmin is sending me a brand new unit free of charge! Free 2 day shipping.
Can't complain about that!!!!
