Does Anybody Have Experience Of The Garmin Etrex Vista Cx Gps Receiver?
Jul2
I am thinking about buying one, are they any good??
I’m particuarly concerened about the map resolution, in the UK it comes loaded with the Atlantic base map, is this good enough for navigating around European roads, not just motorways but smaller lanes and streets?
If its no good, what are your recommendations for alternatives, I mainly need something to find my way around when driving through europe. But also like the fact that the Garmin eTrex can be used for hill walking, sailing etc. Units like the Tom Tom one are fine for driving, but no good for the other applications.

I will be going to Afghanistan soon and want to know if any service member has used their personal GPS without buying new map software. All I need is know if it will still give me the proper UTM grid coordinance when I use it.
How Do You Get A Garmin Etrex Vista Gps To Tell You Your Trip’s Aggregate Vertical Climbing?
Jul1
I think it’s showing me the total increase in altitude, but what I want is all the little increases in altitude totaled up. So for example if I started at 6,000 feet, went up to 6,800, then back to down to 6,000, and back up to 7,000. I think it’s showing me 1,000 (summit-base), not the total climbing (which would be 1,800)?

What Is The Difference Between The Garmin Etrex Vista Cx And Gpsmap 60 Csx?

Does anyone know the difference performance-wise between these 2 models? I have seen a comparison chart but I couldn’t find anything that would explain the price difference…
I am looking for a handheld GPS unit that would load topographical maps on it (for hiking).
Any recommendation would be much appreciated!
Thanks a lot!
How To Transfer Routes From Garmin Etrex Legend Gps To My Pc & Incorporate It To Google Maps Or Google Earth? ?
Jul1
You need a program that can read the data from your etrex and create a gpx file.
Garmin’s Mapsource will work well and will let you edit the track before you create the file.
Easy GPS (www.easygps.com/) will also work and is free.
Edit your track appropriately, add waypoints, etc and save the GPX file.
Go to the GPS visualizer web site (http://www.gpsvisualizer.com/convert_inp… and convert the GPX file to a KML file.
Go to your My Maps on Google Maps and upload the KML file.
You can then edit the colors, waypoint markers, and the routes on your map page.
