Wireless Trail cameras

[cmiller85]

Does anyone have any experience with wireless trail cameras?

What are the monthly subscription fees like? Are they trackable like a cell phone in case they are stolen?

They have wired trail cams ?

Tagging along.

It all depends on the trail cam and if they require a certain provider who they are in bed with.

I have the HCO Spartan Gocam Noglow, Verizon version.  It is AWESOME!!!  You need 3 bars in the area you set your camera up, but I get photos even when it's showing 1 or 2 bars.  You can make adjustments right from home,  switch between photos to video, how many photos you take, the time frame, etc all without having to drive into your area.  Cost me about $8 a month and I can receive hundreds of photos.  $5 a month to Verizon per camera and $3.?? to HCO to make changes to the settings on the camera from home.  Very reasonable.  One trip saved pays for the service.  I will be buying a couple of more this winter.  They are the BOMB!!!  They are not trackable, but you instantly receive the would be thief's photo and they are pointless to steal as no one else would be able to use them.

Thanks Machias!

I'll post some photos tomorrow that were taken with this camera.  It's particularly great if you are 40 or 50 miles from your hunting spot.  You don't have to go in and disturb the place to see what activity is happening or making changes to your settings.

Im probably going to buy a bushnell aggressor cell cam.  It should get enough of a signal up on top of my hill, so i can test it out for a while at home before i take it out into some remote area.

Sorry to be so slow in posting the photos.

To my knowledge direct uplink camera's are illegal in this state. Considered unfair chase.

I don't see anything in the regs about game cans.

They are NOT illegal. Lot's of guys using them here.

Don't remember exactly where I read it, Ill look around and see If I can find something. I could be wrong but I was wanting to get one and came across information saying they were illegal in washington state.

They are NOT illegal. Lot's of guys using them here.

I understand, Lots of guys still baiting bear to. Just saying.

That's a pathetic comparison. Good luck with your search. To the best of my knowledge, I usually don't post false info on public forums then argue when I'm wrong.

Once again, wireless cel cams are LEGAL for us here in Washington to use.

Testy testy. No wonder hunt wa has went to crap. People like you. Simply trying to share information that was "the best of my knowledge" which does not mean  it was the truth. If they are legal, which I cant find any information now on it.. I stand humbly corrected. Relax.
