Just wondering how far everyone else can track with their alphas? I can't track over a mile with mine. My old 320 and 220 would pick up 2-3 miles.

I'm experiencing the same results as you. Sometimes we put a dc50 and my TT10 on the same dog, and let him hunt.
The dc50 will have him at 1.5~1.75 miles while my TT10 dropped him at .7 miles.  I like having the shock and tone controlled by my alpha. Had I known how much further the DC50 tracks I would have stayed with the 320.

Try updating y'all's systems and collars... you should be able to get 1 to 2 miles with no problems using factory antennas.

I updated everything and still couldn't get any range so I sent my handheld back to double u. This is my 3rd one i can track  1.5 miles with this new one with just the foot long antenna they sent me with it. Thanks double u for your patience with my bad luck!
