Can this be used above ground? Also, will it work with all collars, transmitters?

Yes it can be used above ground and yes it works with all collars and transmitters.

We used this product to replace our Invisible Fence perimeter, much of which is above ground in our woodlot. As it is an industry standard cable, I suspect that it will work with any electronic collars that operate like Invisible Fence.

The wire should work with any system. Much heavier than the thin stuff that comes in a kit. We have it underground and also in a plastic tube where it crosses the driveway (strangely the signal seems to be lower there). Above ground should theoretically give the best signal but the chance of damage is pretty high. We rented a small trencher with a special attachment for laying this wire.

My install was all above ground.It was used with an invisible fence brand system.As far as i know it should work with any collar.

Sure. For use as an inverted V, erect the Windom antenna at 40 feet above ground, with each leg tapering to approximately 8 to 10 feet above ground. Support the ends out of reach of human or animals,with the ends having a fall from the apex of 60 degrees. Works great for me.

Yes the transmitter will control up to four different collars. We have had good luck with ours.

I do not use this antenna as a transmitter. It is a wide band omni-directional antenna. I got it to bring in High Definition Television. And it works rather well. With towers in my location all around. I didn't want to buy and stack directional antennas, or have to keep adjusting a rotor. As with any antenna. I would suggest mid range of the spectrum that it is tuned for would probably be your best gain as a transmitter. Other wise a directional will always have the best gain. I can say that it has done it's job well for what I purchased it for.

Sure can. Looks like PIRF-100. Link is: PetSafe Indoor Pet Barrier Transmitter, Operators Multiple CollarThey call those the transmitters and the collars the receivers instead of the other way around, though, it looks like.

I don't think it will fit above a TV antenna if you are using the ground plane kit. Without the ground plane kit it may work, but you are going to get interference into your television if you are using it.I mounted mine on a regular TV pole on the side of my house with the ground plane kit, only 25 feet tall. For 10 meter sideband it works fine long distance all over the world. For AM CB radio, you need to get it as high as possible above the roof. Email me direct if you have any other questions or I can send you a pic of the antenna.Matt Diridoni - KC6RUO matteod@comcast.net

The above ground section can be used. You just have to have a continuous loop and if you don't want your pet to get zapped at any particular area you need to twist the wires together for the area you don't want your pet zapped at i.e. door area. We ran our above ground wires through PPE tubing to protect from damage. But to be sure you may want to contact tech support at Petsafe.

Possibly. I'm not sure of the results you'd get. The locator beeps can be quite sharp (some variation there) and a dog might find them upsetting. The range is limited so it's not likely to work well in a big house or big yard. The part that you would put on the collar is not weatherproof, based on having replaced a battery. This means that a dip in the water bowl or extremely wet weather could damage the unit. I would address this question to the seller who is very knowledgeable.

Yes, it will operate up to 10 collars off the one controller. I use two with no problem.

The signal booster is made for outdoor antennas. I don't know if it matters which antenna you have. I use mine on my old rooftop antenna, it works for me.

Electronics will not interfere with this device. I did however take the collars off simply because the transmitter was close to the water bowl and they wouldn't have been able to get to it. When I still lived with my parents, the collars were on 24/7 and there was never a problem.

Hello. We are happy with the unit and it works quite well. We have it at the top of our stairs and it keeps our two beagles off the second floor. We got the "stubborn dog" correction collars and, since you can vary the level of correction, it works as well as our outdoor invisible fence.

Thanks MyOhMy. I must have an older model. My COLLAR uses 2032 batteries, but my transmitter takes a 12v cylinder-shaped battery.

Yes you can program multiple collars with one transmitter, but you will have to buy more than one of these (you can have one transmitter with multiple collars, but if you need more than one zone you need to buy two of these because you need the transmitters AND the collars). The active area is less than half what they say, about 5-6 feet. I would search for another unit.

not exactly sure of the range, it was either 400 or 600 feet. And yes, it will work regardless of the dogs position. Love this collar, it has made quite a little lady out of our lab!

Should work very well. But remember that it will be 1 foot above ground level. My dog likes to stretch beyond his bed on thwe floor.

The collars are 3/4 in wide. The transmitter is 2 1/4 in long, but the way it attaches to the collar (it threads under a piece of plastic at the base on each side, going up the sides and top of transmitter) requires 4 inches of collar length total, so you will need that much room available on your collar for it. Not sure if such a small collar would have that space available, so measure beforehand.
