Old post had a link to a website with comparisons.

BCA tracker rated high and was simple to use. Battery life longer because no extra power consuming accessories.

Best Beacon Out There

I'd recommend the Arva. Have found it to be the most user friendly and reasonably priced beacon out there. I have been using the Arva for seven years now and it is used by alot of Search & Recue teams. The next one I'd suggest would be the new Pieps. Like the Arva, it is all digital and also user friendly. Nice thing about the Pieps is that it can be reprogrammed with any new updates Pieps may come out with. I sell both of these beacons and if you're interested I can be contacted at 406-838-2040. Bearclaw Bob - Cooke City, Montana.
