What Locator Are You Using? - Plumbing Zone

ToUtahNow · 06-01-2009, 01:20 PM

There are a ton of locators out there. I own Goldak, Metrotech, Radio Detection and Navitrack. I have to say nothing comes even close to the Navitrack. What are you using and why?

I'm using the Navitrak II locator.
We have some Scouts that I could use if I wanted but I prefer having the big ol outboard motor case on my van. Other guys swear by the Scout but I just prefer the Navitrak II.

I use the navitrak it been right on the money everytime i use it. I used the gen eye where I use to work and that thing was always off and it never gave the right depth.

wierd. I have been using my gen-eye for about 9 years and it has always been on the money. the depth is only off when the location is off. When i get a depth i know can't be right i know i must be off and redo it.
