Beacon Interference was created by Clawskinner

Looking for information regarding RF sources interfering with beacons in search mode. Have been looking at the manufacturers material. Wondering if there is independent sources out there ? Studies ?

Noticing that my new beacon (BCA Tracker 2) picked up multiple burials when I was testing it against my old one. Cell phone was on and so was my wifi.

Thanks

Very specific to the avy beacon and the device:

But in general, MP3 players and "smart" phones are the worst offenders.
