    I was told their sensitivity in bush ain't that great. Personally, you gets what you pays for. I have certainly come to appreciate the certainty of knowing where I am- and where my truck is.

    I use a (now old) C60 - and the only time I couldn't get a signal was the weekend the yanks were bombing the shit out of Bin Laden!

    The newer version C62 will hold a topo map etc. but - they're not cheap - though DS did do a lot @ $499 recently - my son bought one.

    As above they are a bit iffy under moderate cover and fiddly to use. For a bit more $ the magellen 110 and gc have been working well.

    If you can go $300 the 310 can get proper topo maps loaded onto it.
