The all in one!

Simple and fast to use! Just like my old f1 focus I hear the beacon signal (single or multiple) as far away as 70m and once I get within 40m the digital numbers begin to count distance down and at 30m it begins vectoring and at 15m it switches to full digital mode! Super fast fine search! you walk directly to the buried beacon. The third antenna kicks on as soon as it receives its first signal pulse, usually around 5m. The best of both worlds built into one beacon! Definitely the best tool for being the fastest at finding my buddies if I ever have to search for them because we were dumb enough in the first place to get into an avalanche!
