GPS Tracker

Recommended Posts

Hi,

I am looking for information on GPS trackers that could be attached to the main.

My main reason for getting a gps tracker: I have a complete Parachute systems rig. They are out of business, so no more spares are available. I do have a skyhook and hoping that it will keep the reserve freebag and PC attached to the main on cut away. If I find the main, I find the freebag nd reserve PC. 

Any help or pointers are appreciated.

Thanks

If you use an Apple iPhone the answer is easy... their Air Tags.

If you use android, stay away from Samsung Smarttags... they only work with Samsung phones. I made the mistake, but won't again. Rather look for tags that work with Google Find which works on all Android phones including Samsung.

By example...

Do not use airtags. If the main lands outside of Bluetooth range of any other iPhones (i.e. In the middle of the woods), it won't work. Look for something with its own independent cellular connection. I personally use JioBit, but most anything marketed as a pet tracker will do the job.
