When we download BirdsEye imagery, we put it on our laptop or desktop computer, is that correct? Then would we use an SD card with a USB adapter to get it to the Garmin unit? Does this go pretty smoothly?
About the roof mount antenna ... I guess it expands the range of the Garmin for if you're hunting in a large area? Just stick it on your roof and plug the Garmin in. What's the difference between the VHF antenna and the Garmin one? I'm guessing the VHF is stronger? This is a stupid question, but how does a VHF antenna read the satellite signals?
Thank you to everyone who's explained stuff so far.
The garmin antenna is VHF also. The vhf long-whip antenna just gives you much more range. I've picked up mine as far as 4.5 miles away in good conditions. All garmin gps collars use a combination of gps signals and vhf signals to pinpoint the location of the dog.
