With FOXBANG,™ your FOXPRO® game call will automatically switch sounds at the report of your gun. A common trick employed by savvy hunters is to instantly switch sounds after firing the gun to a coyote pup in distress, for example. This can help them bag additional animals that might otherwise flee at the sound of the gunshot. The problem is, manually changing calls takes valuable time that reduces effectiveness. With FOXBANG,™ all you do is enable the feature, and your call will automatically change to preset #1 when you discharge your firearm! FOXBANG,™ yet another hunting-smart innovation from FOXPRO®.

FOXBANG with the TX915 Remote Control
The available functions for FOXBANG activation on the TX915 are: mute (toggles mute on/off), auxiliary (toggles auxiliary device on/off), and presets 1-5.

When the desired function is selected, push "Select" to lock it in.
An unintended and unavoidable consequence of adjusting the FOXBANG sensitivity to the highest level is that handling noises, such as the banging of the transmitter case on your firearm stock, may cause unexpected activation of FOXBANG. For this reason, you should choose the lowest sensitivity that affords reliable activation from the muzzle blast. FOXBANG is intended to work when the transmitter is located within about 5 feet of the firearm muzzle.
