Strengths:
Basic search and send functions that do their job
Weaknesses:
No flaking function or other more advanced techniques
Big and clumsy
On / off button can come off!
Summary:
BCA's popular transceiver that has been on the market since 2010 is a sensible purchase if you get it at a cheap price!
Basic transceiver available with holster to put around the upper body. I have tested it at low prices and at exercises, but never in a sharp situation. At transmission mode, it sits comfortably, close to the body. To activate the search mode, it is simply picked up from the holster and activated easily by, with gloves on, pulling out a large button. The distance and direction to your friend is then clearly visible on the simple but clear screen and with the help of five illuminated arrows that show the direction of any receiving signal. When comparing with other participants' transceivers at the low price, BCA2 was poor at getting in signal, it was required that you were quite close to the sending individual despite the stated distance being 55 meters. It also has no flaking function to facilitate the search of more than one buried individual, which means that you only receive the nearest signal and cannot deactivate it to search further. In addition, the screw for the on / off button fell off quickly and I had to glue it with the help of the fishing line in order not to lose it. Searched in various hardware stores but there was some kind of special screw from the states.
The transceiver is still sold -18/19 for a price around 2500: -. Sure, it does the basic job well, but for me with poor quality and in a clumsy format. Therefore, I only recommend the product if you come across the new or used at a bargain price!
