[QUOTE="SeisMec, post: 43508, member: 1089"] I've got the Garmin 62st, I've had it for 7-8 years and don't regret the purchase. With it's large antenna it is very accurate if you like doing geocaching or benchmarking to find NGS survey markers or US Department of Interior Geological Survey Disk. I've had accuracies of 6 foot or less with mine against survey disks. I've used mine in the Gravelly Mountain range in MT for elk hunting with some free overlays that I downloaded and never lost a signal on foot or ATV with very good accuracy. It's easy to download free maps and overlays from gpsfiledepot.com then uploading them on to your handheld with Garmin's Basecamp program. NDGF has a download of the lake overlays that can be uploaded straight onto a Garmin. I believe but am not sure that they also have the current PLOTS and all state land and all hunting unit overlays too as a free download for Garmin's. If I was going to get another handheld today I would stay with a Garmin but go with something with a larger screen to make easier on my tired eyes. [/QUOTE]
