It does, but a bit of adjustment soon cures false bleeps. It's not just about twiddling the dials, but how the rods are set up too. I can honestly say in well over 20 years of using delks I've never not been able to cure weather related bleeps

I guess some people are just lazy and will put up with it rather than adapt to conditions

Bought a set when they came out last year for my barbel fishing and so far they have been faultless. I was a true delkim hater and used to slate them after having issues with the previous txi's in wet conditions but took the punt as the new fox alarms are huge hideous looking things and so far so good. They look much better in the flesh as i was a bit unsure of the looks when i first seen the photos of them.

Ive had both rx and now got the new delks, early days with the delkims so ts not a long winded review BUT I fished last weekend in the storms with my new delkims and didn't suffer any problems in the high winds and rain, the do not disturb feature is great to stop intermittent beeps in such conditions and the functionality is great on them add to the fact that they look so much better than the old ones and I think you have a winner.

To give some background I got rid of my old delkims and had NXT-r and then upgraded to the RX+ since release and cant say there was anything wrong with them and in my time I didn't have any issues but god they are ugly and feel plastic to the touch and given that Im a tart I don't think you can beat the sound of a Delkim.

In closing you won't go wrong with the RX I just like the newer slimmer Delkim that is packed with more features not that Ive adjusted them as yet from the standard settings

I got to admit I hate the look and feel of the fox alarms, one friends has the rx* and one has the nxtr alarms don't like either if I'm honest

Has anyone got the new ev-ds yet??

I'm too cheap to fork out for the txis although I would rather them
Any info on the output jack can say the atts receiver be used with dongles for these when needed?

Has anyone found a case for the receiver to use when it's in use on the bank?

Very hard to make one like it was with the old TXi receiver due to shape of the TXi D receiver but peak Angling have one on eBay

I like the mute function on the alarms, but the receiver still bleeps which is frustrating. Any way to mute the receiver when the alarms are muted?

If you use the do not disturb function the receiver with not bleep unless you get a bite ie bleeps on the alarms do transmit unless you significant line movement? This resets after 15 minutes though ideal in hail storm
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
