If they turned round and said GPS would help us understand losses/smashes better I would see the merit in it. I dont agree with the gambling angle.

Agree with that, When losing birds, i often wonder where they are and what happened to them as im sure everyone does

Personally i have no gripe about who sponsors the technology, as long as its within financial reach of any one who wants to participate then i see no reason why not.

Mind you it could maybe be something that if it took off could catch the interest of BIG gamblers and that would bring corruption so a tight lid would have to be kept on the amounts gambled. jmo.

the video shows the gps and the bird heading for home if that is a straight line of flight what is it going to be like into the lanarkshire area via the dog leg and if in the nat they can take 2 hour longer coming from broxburn the trace map would be fun to look at
