umc Posted August 28, 2003 Share Posted August 28, 2003 My first GPS was a Lowrance Global Map 100 and I got that about 5 years ago now. Right when they came out. It was the first GPS that allowed download-able maps. I still like that gps because its rock solid. I bought that for fishing and and such but it sat more than I used it through out the years. I found geocaching when I was checking to see what was the latest and greatest in GPS's and thats when I started caching and bought a Garming GPS V. Since I've gotten a Magellan Meridan Platinum but never use that one. I may some day. What keeps me currently using my GPS is geocaching and the fact that I drive all over our metro area for work and with the auto routing it gets me there and back. I'm thinking of buying a etrex vista now for use on my ATV. __________________________ Caching without a clue.... Quote Link to comment

+Searching_ut Posted August 29, 2003 Share Posted August 29, 2003 My introduction to GPS was in 1987/88 (can't remember for sure on the date, but it was pre SA days). I was in a USAF test sqadron where were doing tests interfacing GPS/INS navigation systems. At the time, I was far more facinated with the new ring laser gyros. What got me started was work of course, the system was still in testing, and the equipment was large, not all that useable, and definately not affordable. Purchased my first GPS unit in the last part of 95, magellan 2000. As for why I keep using GPS, I'm an avid hiker, and as such find it really useful, both for navigation and recording trails. When I'm not hiking, I also use it for geocaching from time to time. Quote Link to comment

OuttaHand Posted August 29, 2003 Share Posted August 29, 2003 My first one was a Garmin 45 back around 1995 or so. Bought that one because of its removable antenna. At the time, I was planning to buy/build an ultralight airplane and I wanted to mount the antenna above the wing. I also made a mount to mount the antenna on the outside mirror of my truck for off-roading. Ended up not using it very much and it sat for a few years. Dug it out little over a year ago to try my first cache and found out that it stunk under tree cover. Bought a Garmin 76 and then a Rino120 for caching. Caching keeps me using them.

+Planet Posted August 29, 2003 Share Posted August 29, 2003 1. Since April 24th, 2002, when the bryno got a Garmin Legend and we did our first cache. 2. The bryno got a Garmin Legend and my cousin - a geocacher - had told me about the sport, so we looked it up and there was a cache nearby, so off we went. 3. I must have an addictive personality, because I am addicted to the sport/hobby. And not just the finding and hiding, I have this need to trash out, to attend events, to chat with other cachers, and to post randomly in the forums now and then. But please, don't ask me anything technical about my GPS. It's blue and it's pretty, and it finds my way somehow by magic. Cache you later, Planet So many caches, so little time.

+Rubberhead Posted August 29, 2003 Share Posted August 29, 2003 I purchased a Garmin GPS 38 before the GPS 12 was even available some I'm guessing sometime in 1996. The reason then and now is that I'm a hunter and offshore fisherman with a very poor sense of direction. Having a GPS on the boat allows me to really concentrate on fishing without worring about literally loosing my bearing. I can not imagine life without it.

What make/model of receiver was this? Cheers, Kerry. I never get lost everybody keeps telling me where to go [This message was edited by Kerry on August 28, 2003 at 06:57 PM.] Thanks for all the tech info Kerry I was obviously in the military at the time I was speaking of, and we were using US supplied equipment. You had to give the baby a rough lat long to work from before it would aquire. It was believe it or not portable (In the same way that the early cellphones were, which means a battery pack the size of a large motorcycle battery!) You had an external antennae that was similar to the modern GA29 and to get a fix you would need to be in a clearing. It gave you simple lat long on an LED screen and I believe it was a 4 channel receiver. You have to realise that we were just end users and the equipment was loaned to us by the US government, so as for make and specs etc, I have no idea. It would have been around the middle of 85 we were using it, as I left the area in the September of that year. If the info you gave was meant to inform me then thanks, if it was meant to shoot me down in flames then "whatever". A question was asked by a fellow cacher and I answered it truthfully, whether you believe me or not is not really an issue. If you would care to mail me I would be happy to tell you just why we were using the kit in question. Also just for the record, I have a sailing magazine from 1989 offering the first commercial handheld GPSr in the UK for the bargain price of £2000 which is about $3200 US!

+GOT GPS? Posted August 30, 2003 Share Posted August 30, 2003 I got a Magellan 4000XL 12 channel GPS back in 1998 from Eastern Mountain Sports. I like tracklogging alot, so I gravitated to Garmin. For Tracklogging, detachable antenna, high resolution screen, and mapping I prefer the GPS V.

mckee Posted August 30, 2003 Share Posted August 30, 2003 I bought a Magellan 2000XL when it first came out! When was that, anyway? I didn't want to lose my truck every time I was hunting. We still use it to make a trail back to the rig when we're hunting, but we've finally graduated to a Garmin GPS V for navigation and caching. -------------------- You have the right to defend yourself, even when geocaching!

Kerry. Posted August 31, 2003 Share Posted August 31, 2003 Merman, for sure back then one would have had to be more than your typical user, especially to be using "loaned" equipment as in 1985 using this "loaned type" of equipment in that type of place would have certainly been for some "specific" purposes especially considering GPS was only declassified in 1984. That receiver would have certainly been one of the very few and very first ever made. But serious question as to what part of the day there was useable signals as in 1985 things were extremely trying without being in the jungle, clearing or no clearing. It's not as if one could have simply whipped a receiver out and obtained a position just any old time. Magellan did release the world's first handheld GPSr (Magellan nav 1000) in 1989, and I would presume that is probably what was being offered as the first commercial handheld. Things did really get a kick along in 1989 with 7 satellites launched within 12 months but even during the 1990 Gulf war the then constellation of the time still didn't (couldn't) provide full coverage (in the desert) and that was even with deliberate and purposeful manipulation of the 16 Sats at the start of the war.
