I have a Polar F4 and can't wait to try it. My question is, where do you ladies wear the chest strap? I don't want to throw off the reading or anything.

    I put mine on before my sports bra, So the strap is under the bottom of my bra.

    Thanks girls! Should I wear the transmitter part in the center of my chest or on the left side, and is the F4 fairly accurate as far as calorie burn goes?

    The transmitter goes in the center of your chest. Any other way and it won't read properly.

    As long as you have your personal info in the watch set up correctly, then yes it will be fairly accurate at estimating calories.

    i wear mine under my bra slightly to my left
    very rarely have it drop out and lose the reading, my only problem is when i got for 90 mins+ run outside and get very sweaty it rubs under my boob and causes a sore spot.
