Timex Bodylink HRM and swimming. Whats up with that?

How come the Timex HRM for the Bodylink system doesn’t work in the swim? I tried it in the pool this morning and I get no response at all. I pop out of the water and within a few minutes I get a reading again. I have never had this problem with the Polar. Maybe I should go back to the Polar for the pool…

Just out of curiosity, are you trying to use the gps system in the pool? Is the strap on tight?

No GPS, just the HRM and watch. Strap is on maybe too tight? I get the ?? on the reciever when in the water but a reading of a correct HR when out…

Mine only works with my wetsuit on.
