bottom of the page there is a pretty good idea for one that I have been thinking about trying.
When guns are outlawed, only outlaws will have guns.

novice shooter, gunsmith, reloader, that is always open to help, tips, and tricks.

Let me know how it works. I"m interested in how long you can stretch out the wires to make it somewhat remote.

That fella has a great site. I use my cell phone, and just play those sounds thru it. I got a new andriod cell phone with internet access. I can plug a speaker right into the phone, than just play those sounds right off his site.  Its cool cause i can use a long cord on the speaker, control the volume with my phone and play just about any sound you can find on the internet. Just how I do it. Another idea for ya.  Craig

Buckduster has a great idea there with the phone.  I built one last year with my mp3 player and the Radio Shack stuff listed on Varmint Al's website.  For about $30 you can have a 9-volt battery powered power horn with adequate volume to stir up all the dogs in your section. ;D

It has worked well, but it is still tempting to spend a bunch of money on a remote controlled Foxpro......

I used the MP3 player off my old Palm Pilot. Works hale way decent, but it would be easier with an MP3 like they suggested on Al's site.

   I built and used one just like from Varmint Al's site with an mp player and the sounds he graciously provides.You can get 12ft extensions from Radio shack ..but 25ft I think think would be the max I would probably run them.(resistance and all?)
  I bought a Spitfire since then and am thinking of selling the other.PM me if interested.Dan
