Confidence is high after practicing my beacon skills. It took a while to find the power button, and who knew the beacon had a transmit and search mode. Pic number 1 shows my first time on a single burial.
However after a few rounds I was able to figure it out and worked my way up to multiple burials. Check out pic number 2
That is right, if you get buried I can dig you out. There is one problem, when I went to use the probe I found that the clip that hold the system together was missing. It was a great eye opening experience.
