I run a Foxpro Hellfire. I had some issues at the start, but foxpro resolved them. Since the repairs it has been perfect.

I picked up a FoxPro Patriot a couple Black Friday sales ago and am happy with it overall.
The only complaint I have is the remote display is not the easiest to read, but that may well be due to old eyes and the contrasting display colors.

Fusion for me.

I just bought a new electronic call, a Lucky Duck Rebel. It's their lowest priced call, at only $120. While I would prefer a Foxpro, I didn't want to spend a lot right now, and with the Rebel you get a lot for your money. The biggest plus is the sound, it's very loud. The remote is supposed to work well out to 100 yards. Downside- only 12 sounds, but they're all good sounds and probably all I need.

Icotec gc500 for me. The lower priced fox pro remote was hard to read so I switched and I’m so happy I did. Sound quality compares to the fox pro that cost WAY more too. Also while we were on a hunt we had an issue and at 7pm I got an immediate response back from customer service and solved our issue. Awesome!

I had a fox pro shockwave, had a problem with it, sent it in for repair, worked for a while, had another problem, frustrating, returned it for refund. From the folks I talked with sounds like I got the only lemon ever made. I will say it was the best sounding caller I have every had. The last problem was the remote could not control the unit it could not turn the sound up or down or turn the unit off. I blew some pretty sweet setups screwing around with it trying to get it to work. It was really embarrassing being out with friends or my grandsons. Fox pro did offer to fix it again. Everyone talks up their customer service and that's great, but I would rather their product work. Lot of fox pro worshipers out there. Maybe my expectations are different from others. When I pay 500/600 buck for something I expect it to work. I have entertained going back to a shockwave, but if I had problems again with it I would feel stupid. Maybe that fusion? Maybe something simpler. It seems to me if my garage door opener can work all the time then someone could invent a caller that could work. This was my experience, others may have had a different experience, but was mine.

Have a Foxpro Shockwave and really like it and would agree they need bigger buttons on the remote. When your on a set you don't want to "fat finger" the wrong button and waste your time getting the predators into your setup. Other than the small buttons it has some great features which I really appreciate.
