What Customers Say About Garmin GPSMap 76 Handheld GPS Navigator:

This gps locked on to satillites even in remote Utah canyons, is intuitive and works well. I am very pleased.
So far, only two shortcomings. The GPSMap76 is a great unit. 1) Not rechargeable (2-AA batteries) and 2) the manual seems sparse on details of "how to". More functions than I'll ever be able to figure out how to use. Contrary to the what the writeup says, the unit does fit into my shirtpocket. All-in-all 4 stars. A REALLY GOOD UNIT.
I could see other peoples tracks in the snow that missed the geocach and never found it. Loved it right out of the box. Very little bounce on most trips. Well thought out, user freindly. Used it for geocaching and it took me within 6'. Easy to download from the computer, I would recomend this one to anyone unsure about how to get started. This one is easy and true.
Excellent quality / price relation. It has many useful features. Easy to use. The pc cable provided works great ( even with linux - gpsman software - ).
My husband says the GPS works great, and it will serve his purposes. He likes to fish, hunt and ride horseback on trails. I tried to consider other people's reviews to get the best price on a model that would meet his needs.
