How to Build a Cost Effective but Deadly Snow Goose Hunting Electronic Caller

[@JoseSandoval-cu2kf]

Nice video!! Been a while, but the few instructional videos I have seen on KZbin for ecallers were never this good!! Great Job!!

[@darylgilbertoutdoors]

Thanks, hope it helps you get a few more birds or save a few dollars!

great video man thanks you i save a lot of money with your video.

[@darylgilbertoutdoors]

Thanks! Good luck out there

I use a radio for my caller. I have 4 50 amp channels. I would think a two channel wired with 4 speakers would kill the wattage to the speakers.

[@darylgilbertoutdoors]

Good for you

[@michaelstancek8611]

I just got into snowgoose hunting with my brother and cousin, I was able to build one of these for $110 and it only took a couple hours

[@michaelstancek8611]

It took me much longer because I built a custom box instead of buying one

[@darylgilbertoutdoors]

Built it using the same set up as this video or you found other components ?

[@darylgilbertoutdoors]

The white box works and is waterproof but there are many options for them which may work better for other people

[@danielfisher9344]

Nice video. What to you use to run your sounds? USB, phone app, MP3...???

[@darylgilbertoutdoors]

I use the sd card slot in the amp and run my sounds from that . Works the best for me don’t have to worry about extra batteries or cables

[@danielfisher9344]

@@darylgilbertoutdoors what kind of amp do you use? I got a Goose Getter Mag and it uses a mini thumbdrive, which is nice for the same reason you're talking about. Not a lot of cables laying around.

Hi man ! Thanks for the video ! Im building one at the moment... I was wonderin how many amps the system is drawing when you usin it a the proper volume in the set up .... In other words the battery will last for how long ? Hahaha Thanks m8

[@darylgilbertoutdoors]

I’d recommend picking up a new lithium battery in the same size they are way lighter and last a lot longer. These batteries last about 12-16 hours for me depending on temperature for the lead acid the lithium last forever I haven’t run one down to find out. I can’t tell you the amps off the top of my head though unfortunately I’m away right now from the amp and can’t check it for you

Great video

Thanks!

[@noahfranzen4756]

How do you get the sounds on the sd card? Does it loop through the one sound or is it just a long sound?

[@darylgilbertoutdoors]

Just upload them off of a computer onto the card. The tracks I use are a few hours long each. They just play in sequence and loop after they all have played. I upload the same track a few times and it plays for hours

[@tylerweimann3552]

Do you have a link for the tracks you use?

[@darylgilbertoutdoors]

I don’t, they don’t sell these ones separately anymore just with a new caller

[@tylerweimann3552]

@@darylgilbertoutdoors do you know a good spot to download tracks - free or paid?

[@darylgilbertoutdoors]

Jim Jones prairiewind decoys had some on his site

[@austingariepy5417]

What amp should i use because the one in there the link dont work

[@darylgilbertoutdoors]

You can use any compact amp. Just make sure it has a power cable you can modify to connect to your battery and has the input for sd card or usb, whatever you want to input your sound files on

[@marvinmagruder1067]

I use a radio for my caller. I have two of the callers with amps. I like the radio much better. I have a CD and SD card in my radio. The CD is louder.

[@OwenCarltonHunts]

What was the final cost?

[@darylgilbertoutdoors]

When I built it with 2 speaker horns it was about $200
