I have a FoxPro Widfire that I purchased this year at Gander Mountain for around $200. It holds a lot of sounds and is programmable in case you want to download more sounds on to it. I'm NOT computer savy, but I called FoxPro and they walked me through things over the phone and had extreme patients with me in downloading sounds onto my Wildfire. Their customer service is TOP NOTCH.
I have used my FoxPro Wilfire in temps of the low teens and single digits. I got cold and gave up before the call did. I really love the call. Its very light weight and portable. However....I wish I would have spent the extra money and got the next step up that comes with the larger remote control. The one that comes with the Wildfire ids very difficult fro me to focus in on at night. Plus it holds only 2 "Favorite" sounds, where the next step up holds 4.
I converted an old turkey vest into a Predator Hunting Vest. The FoxPro Wildfire fits in my pockets just fine, as well as does the remote. In Summary: PROS: Light weight, Portable, Great Sounds, Easy to carry. CONS: The remote control is difficult to read for me at night and only has 2 "Favorites".
I hope this helps!!

I bought the new Shockwave this year. If you can afford the extra money I say go for it. The Shockwave is without a doubt an awesome piece of equipment. I can't see anyone wanting anything more out of a caller
