Tony.H Posted July 16, 2014 Report Share Posted July 16, 2014 does anyone know how to download extra sounds on the sd card? tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fizzbangwhallop Posted July 16, 2014 Report Share Posted July 16, 2014 Get an SD card reader to plug into your computer and go onto the foxpro website... they've got utility programs there for both pc's and Mac's. Fairly straightforward..basically you just create a new file of sounds and transfer that to the card....nb the sounds start at position 00 not 01. I updated one of my sd cards a couple of months ago without getting my knickers in a twist! Always good. This was on my Spitfire and I needed a stereo patch lead, ie 3 contacts, to update the handset with the new names.... I 'think' it's 3.5mm each end?? Cheap but decent SD card readers can be had from the likes of 7dayshop. Cheers Fizz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gaz6br Posted July 16, 2014 Report Share Posted July 16, 2014 Fox cub distress has been fantastic these last 4-6 weeks, get close to the den and I've had dogs and vixens within minutes running at me, it's been my number one call. Fox rally or fox squal I had best results in the pairing up time Use animal distress more in winter mounts when there hungry and set on hunting for them selfs Gaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony.H Posted July 16, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2014 i went about 10.30 last night, i normal like to get set up before sundown, but the fields have been alive with these massive ginger hornet type things that come for you just as last light comes..there about the size of a large bee, they seem to come out the ground where the wragg wort is, its unnerving, but with half an hour there gone, so ive been waiting till later.

gaz6br Posted July 16, 2014 Report Share Posted July 16, 2014 Iv had nothing on both, im out tonight so ill see what i get again. what time do you start calling from. Soon as I'm set up, this time of year, anything from 4am in the morning till 9am ish. Evenings normally anything from 7pm till when ever. Use it in short bursts, I normally play it for 5 mins then turn it off for 10-15 mins or so and try it again. Listen to surrounding wild life this time of year especially, with everything having young about there alarm calls will soon let you no when to turn it on as well Good luck I'm out if it stops hammering it down Gaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fizzbangwhallop Posted July 17, 2014 Report Share Posted July 17, 2014 Over the last few weeks I've had them coming in to the usual yell and to the cub distress.... also had one come in to a rabbit/hare distress and it sat at the field edge watching 'til I turned the call off before it went for it... helped that a couple of hares had come into it from the other direction. It got almost to it before it looked at my motor (must've got a bit of my movement on the mirror) and I could see it thinking "Hmm..... that wasn't there last night" The cubs on consecutive nights were shot at 9.30 but I shot a D&V 2 weeks ago at last light 10.15/10.30 which is 19 foxes since Boxing Day from that one seat.. 12 of those have been pairs on the same night apart from one on consecutive nights. Weird... unusual? 's me Fizz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rsc1960 Posted July 17, 2014 Report Share Posted July 17, 2014 Been out this last few nights and had just the 2, the spitfire is working very well but i can not for the life of me use the call programer,??? i have 3 cards and would love to take the ones i use the most from all three and have them on one card, this would save me from changing the card in the veh, i have a card reader/writer and they seem to move over from one to the other but it fails when i place it back in the unit, IE:the calls do not come up in the hand controller, very frustrating as i love the unit and have fitted a external speaker to the TD4 'under the bonnet' and it does the job, i think i need to keep trying this card thing as i have dropped the card once or twice when changing it and its a pain trying to find it without damaging the card.

Guest Stacka Posted July 18, 2014 Report Share Posted July 18, 2014 third night in a row, three different locations......nothing coming to the spitfire. Either wiltshire charlie is wise to it, or im doing something super wrong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rsc1960 Posted July 19, 2014 Report Share Posted July 19, 2014 Staka what i do is get set up and play the chosen sound loud for about 5 seconds, then drop it back to being low, scan for eyes etc from time to time. the other thing i do is not to keep changing the calls to much in the one spot if there is little or no interest, if you keep changing all night then they will loose interest, i use it from the top of the truck on the sun roof. or i run it in the cab with the under bonnet speaker, or in small areas i place it down range on top of a post so that i can see it and the call will carry further than it would if its placed on the ground. ps: wiltshire foxes are smart.just like the rest of them RSC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
