Every now and then I get separated from my 2003-vintage eTrex Vista. On the first occasion, I left it in a Florence hotel and didn't realize it until I was in...
RAM mounts work great. Before I got a RAM mount I took some 30lb test fishing line and looped it through the lanyard slot and tied it to the Garmin mount. That...
You might want to look into the RAM mounting system. A number of people here and on newsgroups have recommended it for pedal cycles and for motor cycles. Gary ...
Thanks a for the tip. I'll soon try the RAP-274-GA5U which I think I can mount somewhere other than the top of the handlebar. I'm thinking of an accessory rail...
Please excuse if its been asked before, but what is the best / most accurate firmware for the venture / mariner. I've read on the Garmin site, several...
Does Garmin make a GPS that is night vision device capable? I tried to use my Etrex Legend while wearing a military night vision device. I was unable to see...
... never heard of this my garmins have slowly been claiming greater accuracy over the years it's not an easy thing to test yourself but my own testing has...
like I said, I may be completely wrong whit that - but I recall something to that effect... may have been a bad rumor though. Anyway I went from 2.28 to the...
i assume you are using a black and white screen legend i don't know about night vision options BUT if you upgrade to a color screen legendC you will get - a...
A 5-meter accuracy report from your device means that the physical point reported to be "here" is probably in a 5-meter-radius bubble around "here." An...
Hello. I think that you are going to always get a glare off the screen, especially with the IR light on. I can't remember what the backlight levels are for the...
I wonder whether in a life/death situaion whether a window tinting film applied might serve a possible help..I just thought of this and instead of spending the...
... Hash: SHA1 Hello all, just thought that I'd drop y'all a line to say hello, and to introduce myself. My name is Herman, and I'm relatively new to...
The unit arrived last week, and it looks like it will do the job nicely, but not alone. Its design means putting it on the top tube where I'll drip sweat on...
... Hash: SHA1 I was reading in the eTrex Legend that one could interface multiple units together. In doing so would that improve the accuracy? Does Garmin...
Hi, Can anybody tell me what the map scrolling is like with the Vista Cx? I read that the 60CS is really slow compared to the new 60CSx. I'm wondering how the...
... Hash: SHA1 I was wondering if anyone has hacked their Garmin eTrex Legend? I'd be interested in hacks for using different antenna's. - ----- Herman Live...
... I have the Vista Cx but not the 60CSx. But I can say that the speed depends on the amount of graphic present on the map. For busy city maps with lots of ...
one way to deal with slow map writing is to change the map setups from "auto" to "less detail" the detail will still be there when you need it but will only be...
Okay, thanks for the responses. I think I will have to see them in person before making a decision. I currently have a first gen Summit, which I love, but it...
... Hash: SHA1 IF I'm not mistaken I don't think that the eTrex Legend came with the Geocaching icons installed. I did however notice 'em when I installed the...

... So, does anyone know a specific solution for the basic, yellow Etrex. It happened again this weekend. There does not seem much room in the battery...
I have an older eTrex Summit and I don't think it has the memory for 10k points. If it does, there's no firmware that supports it. The newer firmware releases...
It will differ with different models of batteries (potentially changing with improvements by the manufacturer). If foam is too thick, try something like...
Thanks, I put a put a piece of foam under the negative leaf of the dual leaf battery holder and this seems to have helped. The foam was about 1 mm thick, it...
