Dos and donts

Some elements can prevent the satellite from picking up your O-BOY’s emission. This can happen if you’re under hard surfaces (roof, cave), under water or if there is no clear skies (trees, canopy)

For the best signal, avoid bending over the watch, and even better, try holding it in your hand, above your arm.
