Followed directions to set up went on a walk and it was worthless getting me back.

Before using this device in the field i recommend that you thoroughly read the instructions.

Its very accurate, if it is taking a few seconds to retrieve gps signal. You simply move your hand in a figure 8 (you don't walk in a figure 8... lol)

i recommend the d-tour or huntrack models which are much better than this one.

The learning process is too long and complicated. I do not trust it.

Comments about Personal GPS Tracker:

The D Ring on the unit is marginally useful. I had hoped to secure the unit on the breast strap of my backpack but could not find a satisfactory way to do so. Ended up just carrying the device in my camera bag.

My wife an I ventured off-trail on a recent hike around Upheaval Dome in Canyonlands NP. We ended up becoming separated by a ridge and could not hear each other's calls or whistles. The GPS Tracker served as an excellent "second opinion" so that I could return to the trail and rejoin my wife.

Slow to register a position....but once registered is accurate.
Magnetic compass very eratic even when moving to different locations.

Comments about Personal GPS Tracker:

the compass doesn't point , it just jumps in huge amounts to a rough idea of a direction; i never figured it out enough to actually use it. they tell you to initialize it by walking around in a figure 8 shape. my garmin did a better job!
