Garmin support for GPS 60
I purchased two of these units the first one worked OK. The second one has a problem. In a side by side comparison the signal qualities of the two units vary. I checked there accuracy and tracking with OziExplorer moving map software. The first unit tracks pretty good, but the second units position is off a large percentage of the time and sometimes as much as 400 meters. I sent the faulty unit to Garmin to be repaired. They sent it back with a description of the problem and that it had been fixed. I checked the unit out and it is the same as when I sent it to them. Now I'm stuck with a dud.
Made it in the desert it came make it anywhere.
I took this unit with me to the desert during a standard deployment. It performed perfectly even during sand storms and the other ambient conditions that affect satellite signals. I found the unit to be extremely well made and resistant to damage from the usual factors involved in combat operations in a desert environment. I only received a minor scratch on the screen, but considering the circumstances of that day it did pretty good. I now use it in patrol car as I work the roads. It has helped immeasurably to find addresses on calls that haven't seen daylight in years. Great piece of gear. Would be a great tool for a driver traveling alone and to give authorities specific information concerning their location. GPS has almost become an essential piece of our lives, and we are better off for them.
Suh-weet!
Looking for a great Automobile and Hiking GPS - look no further - this is the one.
Awesome unit but you will need the additional Garmin supplied Maps like City Select.
The software registration and unlocking process is a bit on the painful side but only needs to be done once.
I would definetly buy this unit again.
