kfn8ed Posted November 2, 2010 Share Posted November 2, 2010 Any suggestions for a good entry level gps with magnetic compass? Under $ 200.00? Thanks for any help, Steve Quote Link to comment
mtbikernate Posted November 2, 2010 Share Posted November 2, 2010 you're looking for an electronic compass as a feature in the GPS. not a magnetic one. a magnetic compass is a simple compass with a needle that spins and doesn't take batteries. an electronic compass is always a feature add-on. something like an eTrex Vista (the old b/w one) should be able to be found well below your price point. you might be able to find a new Vista HCx at $200. I saw Amazon had that price on a quick Google search. Quote Link to comment
+John in Valley Forge Posted November 2, 2010 Share Posted November 2, 2010 I just have one of these pinned to my backpack strap. $2 or so at Wallyworld. Quote Link to comment
