DC30 and DC20 installation examples

I’ve got one of the stubby antennas if anyone wants to try it out.

Have you tried it?

I got my 3 DC20s off ebay, but haven’t had a chance to check them out with someone’s handheld. There was also one stubby antenna and some dog harnesses in the package if anyone wants those!

So no, I haven’t tried it, but I assume the range will be reduced.

Mike,
Just got back from BALLS and one of the guys there had a DC-20 mounted in a solid block of “potting” epoxy – battery and all with the antenna sticking out one end and the switch and charging cable out the other. Still got a good signal and survived a fall from 10k plus feet where deployment failed. Heavy design but rugged as hell. If you are interested for your article I could see if he has a photo of it. -Sean

I would like to see a photo.
And, I would expect a shorter range with that short antena.
And Ken, any time you want to try out those collers, Let me know.
I have bids on 3 collers now on ebay. I think they are going to be harder to come by soon.
