Default Homemade remote predator call

A few years back, someone here posted a link to a website that showed how to make a cheap remote predator call with an MP# player and stuff from radio Shack. Anyone here know that link? Anyone tried building one and if so, how did it work?

Thanks guys!

Here you go. I tried it this weekend but I didnt have any luck with it. That is due to the 30 mph wind that we had all day long. I went to radio shack to pick up the amplifier and the speaker and the salesman told me it wouldnt work very well and that I should just use small portable speakers. So that is what I did. It had good volume and it didnt cost me a thing because I had everything I needed. Let me know if you have any luck with it

its not remote control, but you set up a predetermined sequence of calls and just let it play. i have something similar tho mine isnt very loud. i was going to get a mini amp and larger speaker, but maybe this wont work. davs2601, did he say why that wouldnt work very loud?

I think he told me that there wouldnt be enough wattage from my ipod and the amp combined. He said that it would be the same as portable speakers. He may have been right or he may have not known what he was talking about. Im going to do some more reserch on it, ill let you guys know what I find out

I saw that link a few weeks ago. that one is not a remote unit.

I think the link that was on here before used a remote microphone. Anyone remember?

I BOUGHT ONE OF THOSE SMALL BULLHORN TYPE SPEAKERS WIRED IT UP TO AN OLD CASSETTE PLAYER WITH ABOUT 35FT OF SPEAKER WIRE . DIRT CHEAP BUT WORKS JUST AS GOOD AS ANYTHING ELSE.
