- Can GPS stand up to Radio Telemetry?
In this video I am going to show you how to use the Marshall GPS system to track your hawk. Then, in a timed head to head battle we test to see how long it takes to track down a standard Radio Receiver and the GPS system.
This video will show you how to track a bird of prey using the Marshall GPS system, and the Marshal Radio Telemetry.
In Falconry, it is really important to know how to track a lost bird, so we wanted to find the best system to do so, GPS vs Radio Telemetry.

Cool 😎 thanks for the update
Top video great example of each system and how they can be used. Really taking the videos to next level and putting falconry back on the map
And thank you for staring in the video!
شكرا لك يا رفيق
Was just about to research telemetry and then saw this video 🤣. Thanks!
You are welcome, hopefully it helped!
Yo Dan nice video didn’t expect this video 😂😂
Plenty more on the way!
@@MercerFalconry great
very useful video Dan, you should have clipped the gps tag onto the jogger for live tracking :), thanks again. using 173 here, flying mhh.
She snook up on me, I don’t like filming in front of people, it makes me nervous 😂
I have always been a 434 man myself!
Very well presented, I am looking at gps for my rehab work as a means of evaluating fitness and to build a database on various Aussie species (currently a bit lacking although Mike Calvin in WA has done some great work) the way I look at it with gps system you have the best of both worlds oh and dont forget to pop on some bells !
That sounds like some interesting work, have you looked into microsensory with the solar panel powered gps?
thats the one I am eyeing up just hunting for the best price
Nice video! Good work using the radio telemetry Jake. My condolences you guys have to deal with nettles.
There’s way too many nettles in those woods!
Thank you! I don’t think I got stung it was more being stabbed by branches constantly😂
@@jakemurray8080 it seemed like those trees were really low, where I've been we don't have that but instead we gotta be looking up the whole time since the trees are high.
Great explanation, nice demo. 👍👍👍
Thank you, and well done to Jake for the edit!
@@MercerFalconry I wonder how the tinyloc would do in the hand of a novice, I find it a little slow but I use one as it is nice in confined spaces like wood, plus it is tiny as described. I have seen you use one ,what's you opinion, do you feel they have a little misdirection, I find I walk a little off course compared to to others I have used.
The only time I’ve had to use my tinyloc was when Igor my kestrel spent 2 days out and it got me right to him with no problems each time, I love my Marshall products but I also really like tinyloc, it would be interesting if they come out with a GPS system
@@MercerFalconry That’s good to know.
Yet another great video! Thank you for the great content.
I just started researching telemetrie systems so this video comes at the right time.
Can you do a follow up video on how the signal quality is influenced by the position transporter?
First the position of the transmitter on the bird itself.
Marshall says that the position of the item on the bird (foot, backpack, etc) can have a influence on the strength of the signal.
Second the position of the bird carrying the transmitter.
The website says that the landscape and the position of the bird (being close the ground or even under ground or up in a tree, etc. ) can influence the signal as well.
At the moment these are only theoretical informations for me. It would be really helpful to see a "fieldtest" on this subject.
Thank you very much and all the best to your team.
(please excuse my English writing, I'm not a native English speaker)
I will have a think about some ways to test this and put together a video, thank you for the idea!
Hi Dan, brilliant video as always sorry this is comment is late! I've been away I'm always blown away by how knowledgeable you are with the subjects you cover in your videos and on your channel in general keep up the amazing content 🦉by the way who was asking the questions at the start of the q&a video? 🙂
Thank you that’s very kind, my head is just full of information on birds of prey and not much else 😂
It was Josh my partner asking the questions at the start
@@MercerFalconry I had a feeling it was, and do you know something I want to be in that position someday! Keep it coming 🦉
@@MercerFalconry Hi dan, where do you get your birds from?
If you work hard on it you surely will!
I get my birds from various private breeders and falconry centres
I use the Microsensory GPS its a total game changer compared to the Marshall. The tags have solar panels and the battery life in the tags is unbelievable. I have gone out with the battery on 65% and when I get back from hawking its 100%, due to the built in solar panels.
My only concern with that system is the additional weight, have you weighed it out of curiosity?
@@MercerFalconry There is no additional weight mine weighs 8g, and there is a lighter one again. We have used mine on a spar.
16:01 so funny !! 😁
,,and very good vidio 👍
Thank you very much! 😁
@@MercerFalconry you are welcome 👍
The Marshall gps has both systems rolled into one so if you loose gps signal you have the traditional beep as well. And the gps still broadcast with radio signal so technically they are one and the same.
Best of three worlds then
Hi Dan, I have always used 216. MHz and it's never let me down. I personally think that the GPS is good for information on height,speed etc. But very expensive. Plus battery life is nowhere near as good as radio telemetry. I also think that GPS takes away field craft skills and people become lazy. Just my thoughts on the subject. Very good video all the same 😉
Thanks, my opinion on GPS is a bit odd, yes I completely agree with you that people should learn how to find a bird without it before using it, and a new age of falconers may end up never knowing how to do so if gps is available. But also part of me thinks is having an opinion against gps over radio almost like a new version of saying why use telemetry at all when we have been fine with bells. I still use radio telemetry, when I said in the video that I’ve stopped using it I should have elaborated, what I meant is when a bird goes out of sight for a while instead of checking with a radio receiver I now just look at the gps. I am yet to lose a bird with gps so while I have tracked lost birds with radio, the gps just hasn’t been through that same real world test with me. Hopefully it won’t have to but we all know these things happen so it’s only a matter of time!
@@MercerFalconry Just out of curiosity, could you train a harpy Eagle Or condor? No one can own them but im Just curious
People here in the uk do own condors, I have spent time with some of them, and there are people in the US who have Harpy eagles too
You could have put the telemetry signal on Freya and Jarad with the receiver turned down to track their progress. And just reverse, you could have put the GPS receiver on Jake and track his progress to you in the bush. :0) I do hope Freya didn't mess up those cute boots going through the brush.
Sterling RM-12 on 173 for the past six years, Leg mounted on my Lanner and Peregrine, I change the 393 batteries every month and it has never missed a beat, considered the Marshal GPS, lots of bells and whistles but I return to the same conclusion.....if it isn't broke don't try and fix it
I appreciate your opinion, everyone has their own and what works for some might not work for others, I personally am not a fan of the phase “why when we have always done it this way”
Go find them
Could you put it on sleep as you fly the bird and then back on to hd mode if the bird flies away? surely this would save a load of battery life.
Not sure, I think that’s pretty risky really
как могу купить
Tôi phải mua nó ở đâu ?
Sorry I only speak English
Gps more accurate
