just wondering if anyone on here is running 150 to 151 frequencie and how they like it

I caught a lion with a small transmitter/ antenna in his ear. It was on the 151 freq. Wow, could come in handy!

really thats kinda cool. i didnt know what they used to track lion. i know the elk around here have 105 freuquencie. do you use 150 151 frequencie on your trackin collar?

I don't use it, but I hunted with a couple guys that did.. They did alright with it didn't really see much difference.. they Found dogs with them..

I don't think it matters that much, I would think you should get a little more range from the higher frequency, and it's a little longer antanea which can be a hassle. but if you have a good deal on a 150 setup... it might be worth it??

I'm Pretty sure WDFW uses 150-151 also.. or at least the tracking collar they had in the Sportsman show demonstration a year or two ago was an old 150 collar.

I use 171 but that cat was on 151.605

We run 151 collars, and we love them

On the west coast, we get alot of bleed over from coast guard and park rangers on 151, Also CAlfire/CDF/USFS uses alot of 151 freq.
When its not being keyed over by other agencies it works great. I think the range may even be a little better in the rough country.
I use 216-219. now but, my friend still has the 151.

i use 150-151- been gradually switching over to 217 just because smaller antenna is handier --



it gets over mountains better


i do get a lot of interference sometimes-


theres radio tower on mt near me--- if im close to that - in 5 minutes maybe able to beep for 1 min without interference--thats worst case --

i have seen 217 unusable near some powerlines tooo


just buzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz --lately im using a combination of both--


lol not thru choice but sent 7 151 collars in for repair and they didnt get fixed or returned - i was scammed

I have been using 151 for 25 years,no complaints.

the 150 and 151 collars work well but can get you in trouble here in east tn the bear tracking collars r in that range

I have a 10 channel 150 F@L tracking box and 6 collars for sale. For info call me 509-637-4183

i have a unit with collars for sale if you know any one who might be interested. larry

I've hunted around people using 151 and 155 frequency, they seemed to have excellent range and work good, the bigger antennae was a real hassle though.

I have both Johnson blue boxes in both 151 and 216 and I am gonna put my 216 for sale and just stick with the 151.
