Could you please provide a link to the forum you found the info regarding the faulty power adaptors. Thanks.

Ok... now that I got through that... I've decided to change over to a different brand... and do some comparison GPS-ing. I've purchased a GPSMAP 60C. It hasn't arrived yet... should be in by the weekend. I'm looking forward to the built-in geocaching abilities. This one has the quad-helix antenna... so I presume that means I hold it Vertically? Cheers. Cadeuses

Thanks for the replys. The owners manuel doesn't describe the type of antenna, whether it is a patch or helix-something type. That's why I don't know which orientation is best suited for this GPSr. I am hoping some experts on the lowrance equipment will come forth with the info. The model was described... IFinder. Not H2O, not Hunt, not Atlantis etc. Just IFinder... I believe it was intoduced after the GO and GO2 models. Cheers.

Well as you may have already guessed, you have a newbie here that is just starting out. I am using a Lowrance IFinder GPSr and have a question as to which orientation is best to hold it for optimum satellite reception? I don't know what kind of antenna it has, which of course is half of the problem.
