Guest davis513 Posted June 20, 2001 Share Posted June 20, 2001 Yeah!!! I just received my Garmin Etrex Legend this afternoon and I LOVE IT. This thing is SO easy to use. I also didn't have a bit of trouble installing the software upgrade that I downloaded from the Garmin web site nor did I have any trouble transferring 5 geocaching waypoints from EasyGPS to the etrex all at once. I'm looking forward to the weekend and my FIRST Geocache hunt :-) Link to comment
Guest chrome Posted June 21, 2001 Share Posted June 21, 2001 Magellan GPS Companion for Handspring Visor. More functionality than 330, excellent map software and maps, WAAS, and I can use any Palm OS GPS app that uses NMEA data! Data is much easier to enter than the video game type of select and press entry. And since you already own the computer and display, you aren't paying for that portion again. This unit retails for $149.00! Link to comment

Guest biga Posted June 23, 2001 Share Posted June 23, 2001 Garmin Vista - Upgraded from the Garmin GPS 40 - WOW! what an improvement Link to comment
Guest CharlieP Posted June 24, 2001 Share Posted June 24, 2001 It looks like I am the only one using an Apelco/Raytheon GPS11. I bought it a couple of years ago for my boat because it came with the power wiring and bracket for mounting in the boat. It works great on the water, even under the boat top, but not as well under trees, and it does not like power lines at all. Since SA was turned off, I get 20 foot accuracy or better on the water, and can do that well on land if it can lock on 5 or more good satellites. CharlieP Link to comment
Guest Uplink Posted June 24, 2001 Share Posted June 24, 2001 Eagle Explorer. Got it for the boat years ago. Still works great, and has some nice features like position averaging Link to comment
Guest N7SLC Posted June 24, 2001 Share Posted June 24, 2001 Etrex Venture. Very satisfied with this unit! Link to comment
Guest Antigonus Posted June 24, 2001 Share Posted June 24, 2001 Etrex Vista 24 hours old... Love it. Link to comment
Guest lhbadman Posted June 25, 2001 Share Posted June 25, 2001 Garmin 12. Have tried it side by side with E-Trex yellow, the 12 wins hands down for accuracy and tree cover performance. Oldie but goodie, as they say. Link to comment
Guest jayw Posted June 25, 2001 Share Posted June 25, 2001 I have a Silva Multi Navigator. I think it is marketed under the Brunton brand in the USA. I'm not sure if there is a problem with the altimeter though. Still working it out. Has anyone else used one of these? Link to comment

Guest srogillio Posted June 26, 2001 Share Posted June 26, 2001 Lowrance Globalmap 100. It is a little big but the details you can download to the unit are great! I use it quite a bit boating and in the map view I can see all the channel markers, their numbers, and colors. It also provides a lot of inland details including waterways, railroads, and rural roads. The CD software includes the details for the entire US but you can only load 2mb at time. I even used in in Costa Rica, although it only had the main roads. Link to comment
Guest Rubberhead Posted June 27, 2001 Share Posted June 27, 2001 Right now: Garmin 38 - I'm selling because I've replaced it Garmin eTrex Mariner Garmin 128 Fix-mounted on my cutty cabin boat I only use the GPSs for fishing & hunting so I don't need the mapping functions, but I can see where a geocacher could really benefit from a mapping unit. I am looking forward to the Garmin Points of Interest CD. Link to comment
Guest homebru Posted June 28, 2001 Share Posted June 28, 2001 Add me to the list of Garmin 12 users. This is my first unit and was purchased at a sales persons' recommendation. So far it seems to be working pretty good. I'm 5 for 8 so far but it turns out one of the "misses" had been removed by someone. Link to comment
