The resolution on the Garmin is 288x160 compared to 120X160 on the Maggies...

 

what does this translate to? by analogy is fine.

thanks

Alfonso


 

See THIS POST . It is series of links on my 76S vs. Meridian Platinum. The when i had a chance to see the two units side by side, the screen resolution difference was very large. In the end I went with better resolution and what I felt to be a better interface (among other factors) over more memory.

If you are referencing the ability to store a track log and navigate the track in either direction (as is possible on my 76S), this is a very useful feature for trekking into an area, saving the track and following the track back out. It is also nice for saving a frequently driven track and navigating both directions.

 

If this isn't what you're referring to then ????

No, the patch (e-trex line) antenna is not as good as the maggie Quad antenna. The 76 line (Quad) and the V have very comparable reception to the maggie.
