Looking to buy my first E-caller. I would like to keep it under a couple hundred. Are there any you would recommend? Any to stay away from? Pros? Cons?

Honestly I'd save up for a FoxPro Shockwave. I really like the TX 1000 remote that the higher end calls have. I used a Primos Alpha Dog before winning the FoxPro PB3 I have now and find the remote so much easier to use on FoxPro. I love the Foxbang feature too, when my gun goes off (or I drop the remote) the caller switches to a wounded coyote sound. I have shot all my doubles, triples, and one quad with that feature. For me the remote alone is worth going to their upper end calls. It's really a buy once, cry once deal for me.
The PB3 is a great call but its darn big and heavy. It pretty much fills the main pocket on my Eberlestock X3 and uses most of the room on my Team Elk. If I was buying one today it would be the Shockwave.
Foxpro makes the best unit overall in terms of sound quality and durability. I have a Shockwave that I bought as a refurbished model for $375. Sound quality is second to none, especially from the Shockwave. Not the best sound library though.
Lucky Duck has a great sound library. Remote range is great and the decoys work well. Sound quality is very good, but definitely second to the Shockwave. The housings are junk though. Mine fell apart after a season and a half and no longer functions at all. Battery covers fall off etc. Very cheaply manufactured.
My advice is to get the Foxpro Shockwave and and a handful of Tony Tebbe's sounds.

Looking to buy my first caller as well. I think everyone has me sold on the FoxPro. Thanks for getting this thread rolling.
