What are the other sound? Any birds?
The FP goat sounds are good.

The FP Whitetail distress is good, but their BT distress is horrible.

I like to start subtle. Like your distressed rodent. Then work my way up to the louder more shrill calls like the dying jack or lightening jack. I've had more yotes come in quick to the subtle sounds than late in the stand to the loud/shrill sounds. I usually end a stand with pup distress but have yet to have a yote come in to that. If distress sounds aren't working I will try howling only but using the same mentality, subtle to shrill/frenzied. I also raise and lower the volume through out a stand so I'm not just blasting the sound out constantly. Good luck, keep trying. I'm about 1 yote/10 stands.

I am not going out without a handcall again.Went out today,got all set up with the call out about 100 yards,sat down got all adjusted hit the call,Wakknn  sjjuiqjalals, for about 30 seconds,stops.turned off,I go all the way over to it again its off turned it off then back on walk about 20 feet turn it on on about 3 sec. off again.brand new batteries,not my normal rechargables but new not enough umph so dead in the hunt go home after about a half hour.......Moral to story handcalls will save you from a wasted trip,should have bought one a long time ago.
