Guest mcb Posted January 29, 2001 Share Posted January 29, 2001 I can say for 100% positive. But off the top of my head I can't think of any reason why not. They should use the same connector and you are only making connection on three wires. Matt Quote Link to comment
Guest MaasNeotek Posted February 1, 2001 Share Posted February 1, 2001 For those of you with Garmins, and a little ability with a soldering iron, check out www.pfranc.com for Almost free connectors. For the ETrex, use a serial mouse cord from a dead mouse - (9pin), cut it off the mouse at the mouse end) and then wire the cord to a connector from pfranc.com I did both mine, and my buddie's for 10 bucks CDN. ------------------ http://www.building42.com/geocaching[/url] Building42 is at 55°32'182" N 113°29'49" W Quote Link to comment
