    Hi Guys anyone been working with Hunter surveyor Central control system?

    We have it and since installation we have never had a month with out issues, partly to do with electrical quality , our MHz fluctuates severely from something like 30 - 60 MHz.

    We have combination of G995 and G870/875 heads , run from 32 satellites on nine holes , with extensive landscape on course .

    I would be interested in anybodies experience with the Hunter Surveyor system , ours is at best poor .

    Our Rain bird by comparison for the community areas seems pretty bullet proof , example a solenoid valve box full of water for months on end due to underground leak , un-detected still had the solenoid with bare wire connections in the water 24/7 and worked without burning out the solenoid .

    I upgraded from Genesis to Surveyor in 2011 and we've never had an issue. We just retrofit the old Genesis controllers with VSX faceplates and swapped out the software, it's been a great upgrade for us. Our radio communication both with the handheld and between the central and the controllers has greatly improved. I guess that doesn't do you much good, sorry.

    I will say that I had full Rain Bird systems with Par+ controllers and Cirrus centrals at my previous two courses and loved them. If I were to build a new system today it would probably be RB (can't speak for Toro).
