The GPSMAP 76 gives you a clear picture of where you are on the map, along with cities, highways, lakes and much more. GPSMAP 76 also accepts up to 8 MB of download data from optional MapSource CD-ROMs for even greater detail. You'll see it all on the GPSMAP 76 large, high resolution display. The GPSMAP 76 is designed to provide precise GPS positioning using correction data obtained from the Wide Area Augmentation System (WAAS). The GPSMAP 76 features a built-in quad helix antenna for superior reception and can provide position accuracy to less than three meters when receiving WAAS corrections. The GPSMAP 76 has an internal memory capacity of eight megabytes. In addition, the GPSMAP 76 comes with a built-in basemap of cities, coastlines, lakes, rivers, interstates, and interstate exit information and a database of nautical navaids. The GPSMAP 76 has eight megabytes of internal user memory for storing optional MapSource— detailed maps, including marine cartography.

And don't worry if the GPSMAP 76 goes overboard - it floats! It features a built in basemap with enough detail to get you out of town or to the dock.
  2. Ive seen them in Gander Mountain store. Also in the cabellas catalog. Might want to look at their website.
  3. Thanks everyone for the reply. I did my first cache with it tonight and both wife and I was pretty impressed. I feel it outdid our gpsmap 76 that we bought a few months ago. That'll be going for sale soon.
  4. Greetings everyone. This is for the Garmin V users. I just bought one today and wanted to hear how well yours is working. How good it does in the thick cover and anything that might be helpful to me. Thanks for the help! Smokey & the teacher Sparta, WI
  5. Ok. I got the doing PQ like every 50 or 75 miles . but question If i have multiple PQ's will it take out the mulitleple caches if it picks up the same waypoint, or will I have to go delete it if it finds it multiple times. Hope this isnt confusing. I also right now use EasyGPS, but am considering changing over to GSAK. Now next question is for the PDA users. Can I put in multiple PQ's into there? I use plucker and spinner?
  6. Ok folks. New to the PQ thing here so need some assistance! I am going on a apx. 200 mile trip. Now i did a PQ from the starting point and put in 225 miles from starting point just to make sure i got all of caches in my route.and when after opening the PQ I could only get 85 miles from my starting point due to beeing over 500 waypoints. Now question is, Is there a way to choose cache waypoints in the route? Like Im looking for caches 25 miles on either side of my route down (Mostly state Highway) to the destination.
  7. Im looking for some help making one for us. Im a firefighter and wife is a teacher so we want something to do with Smokey The Bear and a teacher or schoolhouse or whatever. Would love some help making our signature avatar and pic for personal items. Thanks everyone! Love alot of the ideas allready made up..
