    Crazy fire solutions from a 5700

    I received a new 5700 from Andrew after we talked about the symptoms. The new unit has the same problem as the old unit. It appears now that the phone is the problem. Andrew and I talked again and he suggested that I try a tablet that has Android with the 7.0 version or higher. I bought a new...

    Crazy fire solutions from a 5700

    The unit is set to yards. The Link App does not try to update to 153. How do I do that? I do not know how to accept the upgrade to 1.23. Do I go to the Kestrel website to get it? Every time I have had a Kestrel update on the 4500 and now this one, some of my data has been scrambled. For this...

    Range Report Clarus Acquires Sierra Bullets

    This sometimes happens when a holding company buys a company that produces a high quality product. Push production, maximize short term profits for shareholders, dump the company as disappointed customers start to abandon the brand. I hope this is not their business model.
