Tom! That first one sounds as though it is just what I am looking for. The 25
feet might be a little short, but I can activate it after Domino and I have
advanced across the road a little.

Wireless Sound Beacon
Audible Pager: Locate Soccer Net, Luggage and More
Picture Larger Picture - Listen to this Product Camping! Hiking!
Horseback riding! Even ball games! The list is endless. No matter what
outdoor sport you enjoy, you should grab one of these gadgets before
you go.
Our Wireless Sound Beacon is one of the most versatile toys we carry.
The beacon itself is a box, measuring just over two inches wide and
three inches long, and less than an inch thick. Place it on any flat
surface, or attach it to almost any object, and take the hand-held
remote with you. When you want to go back to the picnic table, find
your backpack, pinpoint the lead horseback rider, or aim for the soccer
net, just press the button on the remote control in your hand. The
beacon will immediately emit a series of beeps, so you'll know exactly
where the object in question is.
On the back of the beacon, you'll find a belt-clip, so it's easy for
someone to wear. The unit has a guaranteed range of 25 feet, and is
loud enough to be easily heard. It even has an on-off switch to
conserve battery power. A must-have for those of us who love the
outdoors, handy for finding everyday objects like purses, and great if
someone in your care is sick and wants to call you for help, this
lightweight, portable unit is both cool and practical. Takes 2 AA
batteries, not included.
Measures about 3 in. by 2-1/2 in. by 1 in.
Price: $14.95
