Guest puma Posted January 10, 2001 Posted January 10, 2001 I am also new to the GPS world and am looking for any advice from you vets, I own the Garmin 12. To you owners of the same, how do you like it, what can it do? What can't it do? Quote
Guest fryed Posted January 10, 2001 Posted January 10, 2001 Puma, I also have the Garmin GPS12. I got it for Christmas and have been very happy with it so far. When I went searching for two stashes I have sought out so far all I did was input the coords as a waypoint and then did a Goto to point me in the right direction. Both times when the distance to the waypoint read 0.00 all I had to do was stand there and look around and I was able to see the stash within about five or ten feet. I haven't found any shortcomings with this model yet but I have never played with any of the other models or manufacturers for comparison. I am curious, however, to see how much trouble it has in the spring/summer once the leaves are back on the trees. Based on my experience I think you will enjoy your new receiver. Quote
Guest Phildozer Posted January 10, 2001 Posted January 10, 2001 had to jump in and get it. Survived with no problems at all. (Your mileage may vary.) Good choice. PEP Quote
