<title>On the Ortovox D3 - how do you locate multiple burials? Do you</title>
<link>http://www.backcountry.com/outdoorgear/Ortovox-D3-Avalanche-Beacon/ORT0026M.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_140087#question_140087</link>
<description>Ortovox D3 Avalanche Beacon&#x3C;br /&#x3E;&#x3C;br /&#x3E;On the Ortovox D3 - how do you locate multiple burials? Do you find the first then turn it off and back on to find the second and so forth? I know it has an indicator for multiple burials but how does it direct you to each one? Any thoughts on the new S1 vs D3 - or even the BCA tracker DTS? Does the S1 have a 5 year warranty too?</description>
