Re: [PSUBS-MAILIST] Desert Star Sport



It should do.  The range for the sport unit is 300m.  The depth rating is 300m.

Thanks Cliff, I am thinking my max depth of 350' and a separation of the surface craft of
about a 1/4 mile would be nice. Do you think it would do this?

I am using the Desert Star Sport.  So far, it seems to do what it is advertised to do.  The receiver has two setting, high and low.  When the receiver is close (50 ft) to the pinger, I have had to go to the low setting to be able to resolve the location of the pinger in low visibility conditions.  What I have not done is confirm the max range or find out what are the constraints on mounting the pinger to the psub.  I don't have anything bad to say about the unit.

Is anyone using the Desert Star pingers? I would like to track my sub with my
surface boat, and keep it within a ressonable distance. Be down right embarrassing
to have my surface crew lose me.
