    Delorme USB Cable

    in GPS technology and devices

    Posted · Edited by skycomag

    i had the same problem with new my p-60.

    you need to push the connnecter down real good to make a good contact.

    some times i need to do it more than once.

    i just tried it now an it took me 2 trys to down load directly to the p-60.

    it looks like the pins are brass.my need to be scuff after using it after a while.

    just tried again 2 time sync. 1st tried.

    newb need your opinions

    I just pulled the trigger on a DELORME PN-60.

    After reviewing all the specs. and extra each of the gps unit i was interested in and those that had been suggested is why i decided on the pn-60.

    some of the factors that i based my chioce on was lrg. memory, no. of channels,after market map upgrades

    battery life and more.

     

    it seems that there is no perfect gps unit after reading many reviews of many of your suggestions but the Pn 60 seeems to have good reviews more pos. than neg. for me.

     

    here is a link for the specs:PN - 60

     

    i want to thank all of you for your opinions on ths issue of mine.

    Good luck and happy hunting geocaching, mitch.

     

    Would've mentioned the '60, but it was priced over your stated limit. Regardless, you chose well... I really think you'll be happy.

     

    well it was only $40.00 more that i wanted to spend.

    but with the feature i thought it was with it.

    now no need to worry about lack of memmory,for map upgrade if needed,there is tons of it.

    newb need your opinions

    Don't leave the Delorme PN-40 out of the picture either. It comes with full topo mapping (Canada and Mexico included).

    Garmin units require purchasing maps, or downloading from a free source. They come normally with only basic maps (major roads, cities, etc.)

     

    thank for your suggestion.

    i'll ck. it out.

    thanks,
