Pyle-Pro PGW170 - VHF Belt Pack Wireless Guitar Transmitter Review

A PYLE of shiite......
I bought this thing and have 3 others, Samson brand, and right from the day I bought it it didn't function right, so I try returning it (but had shelved it inadvertently seeing I have bigger things to worry about) so the secretary there (I'm sure at the behest of the owners) gave me all kinds of grief to return the thing a couple days after the policy required and only the receiver, not just sending me a whole new product.
so after bickering for a couple days in emails back and forth, PAYING MY OWN DOUGH to ship the thing back and some wrangling back and forth, I send it and get back one that also did not work....which says to me (A) they just returned the thing I sent them to be ()*^()^'s ( I forgot to mark it so I would know) or (B) the main box was no good and not the beltpack.
So, I wasn't about to go through the same routine I did to return the beltpack for a $50 piece of *()^)^) so you can see in a Youtube the Pete Townsend routine I did to it ....but I won't link it here because then they'll find it and ask youtube to remove it or try and hassle me and sue me for defamation.
So search there for PYLE OF (*^*()&*_ and you should find it...it's pretty funny frankly people tell me....
Obviously my opinion is 'Save your money and buy the competitors product'
For instance, My Samson models (3) work still after years, only problem I notice with them all, the low end ones, is they don't pick up low guitar tones very well but play well when doing leads with a stomp box of your choice and middle chord tones...

GARMIN 010-11049-00 Astro DC 30 Wirelesss Collar Transmitter Review

GARMIN 010-11049-00 Astro DC 30 Wirelesss Collar Transmitter

The original astro came packaged with a small rechargable orange transmitter and a velcro harness to put it on your dog. Anyone mixing velcro and dog hair knows what happens next. There was also a plastic clip you could use to screw the transmitter onto your dog's existing collar, but my dog broke 2 of those clips giving chase.
When the DC30 came out it was a major improvement. Garmin realized that the heavy transmitter would sag down where the dog tags hang, so they put it there intentionally instead of trying to force it on top.
The passive antenna in the original unit was replaced with an active amplified gps antenna sewn into the collar facing the sky. A small thin cable is hidden in the collar to carry the gps signal down to the transmitter below.
Finally, the transmit antenna was redesigned for vhf frequencies and realizes 1dB more gain over the previous transmitter - not alot but still an improvement.
In short, the DC 30 makes the astro a real dog tracker. I bought the collar separately and was immediately impressed. No longer did I have to scrape dog hair from the velcro on their earlier design!

Garmin DC 30 Transmitter Collar. This rugged, all weather collar has an integrated GPS transmitter and antenna that work with the Astro 220 to ensure that your dog will never be lost again. Plus, its specially weighted so the antenna will always point to the sky for optimal signal. When teamed up with the Astro 220, this system will have you hunting in no time. The DC 30, in combination with the Astro 220, pinpoints your dogs position every 5 seconds and runs for 17 hours. You can extend the battery life of the DC 30 by changing the position transmit rate from 5 to 10 or 30 seconds, enabling the DC 30 to work up to 36 hours in the field on one charge. You will know if your dog is pointing, sitting, moving or treeing. Where its at. Where its been. How fast its moving and how far its gone.
