Foxpro is really the innovator in e-caller technologies. Awesome customer service . Sounds are easily downloadable. Proven success in the field. If you can afford it get a midrange caller you won't be disappointed. I went low end and I think I have sacrificed volume. But caller works great. The midrange model foxpro's offer some nice features the I wish I had. Ie foxbang, nicer remote, more sound selection and programmability. Check out the "predator master forum" in the electronic caller section tons of reviews on both the primos and foxpro's.... Foxpro get the advantage 90% of the time.
Foxpro are mentioned so often simply because they're the pioneers of digital sounds and wireless remotes for electronic calls. They gained their reputation back when the only other options were callers that used cassette's, cd's or sound cards with a wired remote. They deserved to be called the best back then and one could justify spending a few hundred bucks on a Foxpro because they were the only ones offering internal sound storage and wireless remotes. Foxpro is living in the past and they shouldn't be charging so much money these days when there are so many call manufacturers offering similar products.
Keep in mind that electronic calls are basically just waterproof MP3 players with horn speakers and remotes and are not complicated at all.
Let's compare my cheap ICOtec GC-500 ($190) to a Foxprop Fusion ($600):
-both have wireless remotes with the ICOtec having MUCH farther range...point ICOtec
-adding sounds to both is the exact same...tie
-both have the exact same sound quality...tie
-both have a jack to control a decoy...tie
-both have raised button remotes that illuminate...tie
-thousands of sounds are available online for both...tie
-Foxpro holds 1000 sounds, ICOtec holds 200. Point Foxpro, but who really needs or will use 1,000 different sounds?
-ICOtec is far cheaper and you could buy the GC-500's for the price of one Fusion...point ICOtec
-Foxpro offers foxbang...point Foxpro
When you compare different calls side to side it's extremely easy to see that Foxpro units are very overpriced as they're still pricing their units as if they're the only quality call maker around like they were 5-10 years ago. When you compare these two units side by side the only significant difference is the Foxbang feature. I don't know about you guys, but paying $400 more just to have that feature and to say I have a Foxpro just isn't worth it.
