First, thanks for posting; don't be hard on yourself - everyone can improve! As others said, I think you did many things right.

On beacon specifics: I also have some negative observations about the Trackers, and my Barryvox Pulse seems to outperform them in the group drills I've done - on both range and accuracy.

One more interesting point: last year we had some cases of new Trackers switch from Search to Transmit in the middle of a search. One case was with a lady who was in Search but was just skinning after someone else and not looking at her beacon. All of a sudden I was seeing more victims. I figured out it was her by the distance and told her to check her beacon, she didn't believe me at first but was pretty surprised when she looked at it :)

That's a setting that you can change. It switches back to transmit after 5 min or so if it set up that way in case you get buried by a slide while searching.
