rm17 Posted October 20, 2002 Posted October 20, 2002 Will a MAG 315 keep on tracking through a carrying case on the belt??? Or will it lost it's reception? Quote
+Olar Posted October 20, 2002 Posted October 20, 2002 The case I use has a closure flap on the top with a velcro fastener. Its flexible enough to bend around the mag315 antenna portion to leave it exposed for decent reception. My case was too deep for the antenna to protrude out so I placed a couple of soft foam pieces in the bottom to allow it to sit up higher. If you take a backpack with you try hanging the case from one of the shoulder straps so the antenna is at shoulder height. That way its a bit higher and not blocked by your body as much as it is when on your belt. Cheers, Olar Quote
+dthigpen Posted October 20, 2002 Posted October 20, 2002 Dunno about the Mag315, But my Magellan Meridian Platinum gets reception through my backpack even. (I find this out by the nice track I have in it every time I leave it on by accident when I throw it in the pack). Doug Quote
Kerry. Posted October 20, 2002 Posted October 20, 2002 The case will not affect reception but being on your belt close to the body certainly will. Cheers, Kerry. I never get lost everybody keeps telling me where to go Quote
