Description

The Dogtra antenna Pathfinder transmitter is the replacement antenna for the Pathfinder transmitter. A damaged antenna on a GPS system can mean lost updates and a dog that drops off the map at range.

Will the Dogtra Antenna Pathfinder Transmitter fit?

It’s for the Pathfinder transmitter. The receiver (collar) has its own Pathfinder receiver antenna.

Signs it needs replacing

Lost range with charged batteries? Look at the antenna first. It’s the cheapest fix and the most common cause.

Fitting the new antenna

It’s usually a quick swap. Turn the unit off, change the antenna and give it a range test. If your model needs the case opened, follow the manual on Dogtra’s website.

Getting the most range

For the best range, keep the antenna upright and clear of your body and vehicle. Metal and water between you and the dog both weaken the signal.

Antenna or something else?

If one unit in a multi-dog system has short range and the others don’t, compare antennas side by side. A bent or shorter-looking one is usually the culprit.

Looking after antennas

Wipe mud off after hunts and let the unit dry before storing. Grit at the antenna base wears it over time.

A spare in the kit

One spare antenna per system is a sensible bit of insurance, especially for collars on hard-running dogs.

Other Pathfinder parts

The Pathfinder receiver has its own antenna, and the collar batteries are the BP37P2400 (Pathfinder series) and BP37P1300 (Pathfinder Mini). There’s also a Pathfinder2 holster for carrying the connector.

Ordering tips

If you train most days, it’s worth ordering a spare while you’re here. A second clip, antenna or set of points in the kit bag can save a session.
