So peeved I broke the tether off my transmitter climbing over a fence a couple days ago working with pigeons, I somehow hooked it just right and popped off the plastic piece that holds the tether cord :bash: I normally throw the receiver over my back when climbing fences, but missed it this time.
I always wear it around my neck over my bird vest.
What's a good way to secure the transmitter? I know I can't be the only one with a broken tether. I hate digging it out of my pocket with gloves on.

If it were me, I'd try to find a way to teather it. I lost one the I had clipped to my vest a few years back. Wouldn't have lost it if it had been looped over my head!

I'm going to sew on a web strap D loop on it and hook a C clip and tether on it. Just needed something to attach too since I broke the tether pin off the bottom.
Also got me a new collar battery while I was at it but having trouble sourcing additional collars to add another dog, probably upgrade if that happens.

Drill a hole in the gusset and put a zip tie through it.

through the cover gussets? Or are talking about the transmitter itself?
-
The green gusset on the top of your transmitter. It will obviously hang opposite than before but atleast it will be connected to you.
