Looks like i owe you an apology :), you are most certainly right.

This is what I found:

"... is not available for purchase in Canada where it is illegal to sell or use it. Its unapproved frequency interferes with channels not approved for civilian use. Fines for individuals are $25,000 with possible additional confiscation of property including automobiles."

thats the same reason they are not approved in australia also. if and when they get approved i shall get a set as they are the bee knees. Till then i will be useing the good old Radio telemetry and the booming voice of Murphy to locate my hounds:-D





: that and aimlessly looking around hopeing to find them by pure luck :tongue:
