Re: Anyone using the high gain antennas?
I think he is referring to the smaller type antenna, that turns back again itself. Looks more like a rectangle and folds up...........I was also interested on feedback on this type antenna, only seen one in action and the guy was driving by using it up on the Mt., didn't get a chance to ask ...

Re: Garmin DC20,30,40 3.50 Software Update

Re: Garmin DC20,30,40 3.50 Software Update
I tried to update one of my DC-30's and now it will not pair with the system at all. When you turn the collar on both lights stay red continuously, don't flash or anything. I tried the hard reset (unplugged the battery for 2-3hrs) still no luck. Guess it's time to send it in.........
