    Hey guys,

    So I'm at work and I've been tasked with getting a FOXPRO Wildfire game caller up and running (new). Thing is, when I turn it on it makes a low static-like/distorted noise and no matter what I do with the remote (like changing calls on the remote, moving away from the speaker etc) the noise doesn't stop unless I turn the speaker off. It doesn't actually make any of the actual calls either. Anyone else have this problem? Any suggestions on how to fix this? I've tried different batteries and turning it off and on and what not, so far no luck.

    Thanks in advance!

    Your best bet is to call FoxPro. Their tech service is pretty good!!!!

    Bad speaker is my guess. Same symptoms as mine and it was bad speaker. Call them up, their CS is far above any I've ever dealt with.
