Sarantel wins third design for SkyCaddie GPS golf rangefinder

Sarantel (AIM: SLG), the leading manufacturer of revolutionary filtering antennas for mobile and wireless devices, is pleased to announce a third design win for the SkyCaddie Pro Series of golf rangefinders. Sarantel's GeoHelix GPS antenna has been selected for the SkyCaddie SG3.5, adding to the design wins already announced in the SkyCaddie SG5 and SG2.5 devices. 

SkyGolf is a pioneer and worldwide leader in handheld GPS products for golfers. Its new SG3.5 golf rangefinder is compact, lightweight, easy to use and comes in a rugged, water-resistant case. Using the same ground mapping methodology trusted by professional caddies and golfers, the SG3.5 provides instant yardage to greens and hazards on more than 24,000 professionally mapped courses in the SkyGolf library.

Richard Edmonson, CEO of SkyGolf said:

'We are pleased to be working with Sarantel again on the SG3.5 golf rangefinder. The small size, high performance and reliability of Sarantel's GeoHelix antenna enabled us to design a great product for a discerning and demanding consumer market.'

David Wither, CEO of Sarantel said:

'We are delighted that SkyGolf has once again chosen our GeoHelix GPS antenna for its latest product. For demanding hand-held applications such as the golf rangefinder, the benefits of our GPS antennas are unquestioned.'
