The Fox 40 is loud and shrill and the first few times you use it it will make your ears go numb. I use the Mini CMG for volleyball. Works great. Can't say I'm a fan of the Pearl. Everyone has their own preference, though. As for overlapping, do you use an index card or a lineup wheel? An index card is faster and easier, but even though the wheel is more trouble and takes longer, it really does help with overlapping. You can get them at Get Official for about 5 bucks. Back row attacks seem to get by me a time or two before I catch them.
