[Garmin 60cs Or 76cs?]

If you are under trees one must remember that the 60c and the 76c has a quad-helix antenna and the units need to be held vertical for best reception.

[Garmin 76cs Versus Garmin 60cs]

On a search & rescue mission the 76s fell out of my pocket when I got into the vehicle. When I found that I had lost it I backtracked and found it on the road. Hmmm it was laying on a tire track. I drove over it with the front wheel of a suburban. GpS still worked but the display was bad. Not broken just bad. I could still download the track and waypoints and track on a computer, just couldn't read the display. How is that for rugged?
