Re: Off Piste - Avalanche Receiver needed?

I have the Pulse Barryvox from Mammut. Dead simple to use (what you want if you really have to use it). I don't have time at the moment to check but I seem to remember reading that the North American settings (frequency) is different from Europe.

You might want to check before buying an American receiver to be sure you can switch the frequency (if my memory is correct) so it works here. Would be a shame to buy something to find out that it won't work here.
No problem with the North American transceivers here. I have a Mammut Barryvox which I bought a few years ago in California. It works fine here. Several years ago (ten+?) there was not a standard frequency but that has been changed and the new international standard is 457 kHz. Just make sure you don't buy an old one that doesn't operate at this frequency.
