This will get the little buggers close enough to me for a decent bow shot..
I bought a 50 watt megaphone, cracked open the microphone and installed a 1/8 jack to override the Mic when being used as a caller. Slipped up to Wall Mart and picked up a cheap 1gig MP3 player and plugged it in, voilĂ*! I found a few calls in MP3 format to download and the thing is very loud!
I need to butcher my camo pack to carry this thing but I just saved a pile of money.. Not much else to hunt around here right now, so this should help even the odds.

Oh, some pics..

awshucks

Looks good! You might wanna try it out from a tree stand after your last escapade, lol.

Funny, but I am going to keep myself a few yards from the origin of the sound, it's easy with an extension cord..

Idislike electronic calls, though I have never used one I do not like the idea of "calling" in game with an electronic caller because it takes the sport out of hunting but that is just my opinion, I love that feeling when you have called in the animal by yourself and not something that plays a perfect sound every time I just think it'sa little bitcheating.

They are widely used for yote hunting and a dead yote is a good yote. They are illegal in most places for game animals.

We can use electronic calls here for deer but not turkey. I built it more for fun but I will try it for coyotes, I already know I can bring them in with mouth calls, now I want to reduce the population a bit.
Also, I am going to add predator control to my company so I can write off some of the stuff I have been buying. An electronic caller will add a bit of professionalism to my jobs as well as get me in and out a bit quicker, I hope.

I hunt every day and am still in the upswing of the learning process, I am not ready to dismiss or condemn anything legal just yet, I will wait until I try everything before I decide what is best, for me.

pretty ingenious setup...

I have a little "Night Lite" unit that I've had forever, I useit mainly for crows anymore, which I do alot of, I havent called any coyotes for several years now, I think about it quite a bit though, maybe this winter...

That is a nice setup. I will have to try that one with the megaphone I got from www.thunderpowermegaphones.com Mine's the 250. It makes a good sound, but i think I can improve it using your setup. Thanks for sharing.
