[QUOTE="axtyr, post: 598866, member: 2282"] I have been using a Magellan Roadmate GPS since 2007. I just bought a Garmin eTrex 22 because it has a colour screen. Normal price $329.00 but on special at Anaconda at the moment for $264.00. If you don't require a colour screen the eTrex 10 will suit you better. ALWAYS carry a spare set of batteries in your pocket and preferably use NiMh rechargable batteries. They won't leak inside the unit and ruin it. The eTrex series are very compact and reasonably easy to use. If you want to carry a UHF radio as well then go for the Rhino series with the integrated radio. Had I needed a radio that is the one I would have purchased. Regards Axtyr. [/QUOTE]
