I have the Astro 220 and one collar has been giving me issues lately. It will connect fine initially but will randomly say the dog is moving and then connection will freeze and it will take a long time to update. I ordered a new long range antenna but it isn't in yet. I took a vide of the distance jumping around. Any ideas what to do?

Did that right before this video. Then after it still wouldn't track right I let it die completely and charged it fully again. Still isnt working right. It will glitch out like this for a while and then connect again and work right for a little bit then back to this. |

Try taking the collar apart and unplugging the battery for at least 15 minutes. I remember having to do this a few times when I ran the 40's... but that's been several years back.

Thanks for the advice, I'll give it a go. |

Also try unscrewing the antenna where it connects, clean really well. I had to do it all the time

Tried this and disconnecting battery for 15+ minutes. It is working better, as in it will tell me the distance to the collar somewhat more accurately and the treed, running, sitting indicator is working again but the compass/direction is messed up still even after multiple recalibrations. |

Man I've been looking for a way to delete it since I first posted it. If you can tell me how to delete it I gladly will. I understand the issues with videos of catching in a pen vs the wild. |
