  1. I have a garmin gps 76. Is there any other mapping software besides garmin that can be used with this unit. I find to many mapping errors with garmin
  2. I am new at all of this and I am trying to learn the tracking feature on my gpsmap 76. I have the manual but I can't seem to get a track started. Any help would be appreciated.
  3. I am looking to purchase a new gps. I am looking at garmin gpsmap 60csx, 76csx or vista hcx. They all seem to be pretty much the same. Am I missing something?
  4. looking for the above. Can't afford a new one as I am just getting started. I am told this is one of the better gps's for geocaching as well as auto use. Thanks dakota duo
  5. I currently us a garmin gps V an mapsorce. I f I purchase a gpsmap 60 csx can I still use the old software for detailed street mapping or will I have to purchase new software. Thanks
  6. What are the main differences between etrex legend hcx and etrex vista hcx. I just did a comparasion of the two at garmins site and they look the same to me.
  7. My old gps crashed nad I guess it is time to update and get a new one. I would welcome any suggestions. My priorities are geo-caching and turn by turn directions for when I am traveling. While I don't want the cheapest thing out there, cost is always an issue. Any help would be appreciated. thanks dakota duo
  8. what effect will updating to nroute have on all my old funtions?
  9. How does updating to nroute effect the software. can you still do all the things you could before.
  10. I currently have a Garmin GPS V that works great but is very hard to see when driving down the road. What suggestions can you make for a unit that can be used for caching and to hook up to my notebook for traveling directions? As usual, cost is a consideration. Thanks for any help. Dakota Duo
  11. I just received a walmart add for a magellam 300r for about $300. This looks like a nice unit for the road but does anyone have any experiece goecaching with this unit. Thanks
  12. I am looking at a garmin quest gps and I was wondering how this unit is for geocaching? Any comments would be appreciated. Thanks.
  13. I currently use a garmin V for trip routing and geocaching. I have the opportunity to buy a magellan 300. The color screen and voice prompts are appealing for trips but does anyone have a thought on this unit for geocaching? How about magellan in general. thanks
  14. is it possible to use microsofts streets and trips software instead if map source for my garmin v. thanks
  15. Thanks to everyone for the input. Most of the things mentioned i had already done but it did not help. Thanks again, dakota duo
