Product description
The Guide BT avalanche beacon from Black Diamond has a maximum reception range of 60m. It is also equipped with a scan function for multiple burials and an auto antenna switch.

The device also has a USB port for software updates. The housing has soft-touch contact points on the side for easier handling. Another great feature is the self-check function, which ensures the accuracy of the antennas and Digital Signal Processing to account for deviations in the beacon signals.
