They all have their weaknesses.. the problem with tracker is that there's only so many places you can hide the unit in a defender, and the villains know where to look. The unit's aerial is also long, and a very good tell tale sign.

No - Tracker, or the RF kind.

All GPS based tracking systems have the same issue that once the vehicle is parked under cover or simply covered with a tarp they stop working.


My vehicle is kept in the UK, in a barn beneath a mezzanine floor which is full of boxes etc and has a vehicle cover as well. I still get a monthly report telling me that my tracker is all working correctly and that they are still receiving a good strong signal from it. I think Trakers have come along a fair bit in the last few years and will only get better. Very Happy

Regards,

P.s. there is no external aerial on the Skytag unit.
