What feature would you like on your GPS.

Recommended Posts

You guys should give Avenza PDF Maps a try. Its a free app that works with smartphones/tablets that allows you to use your device like a GPS. You do not need a signal and it even works on airplane mode. I make unit specific maps for $10 and once you buy them they are yours forever. The PDF Maps app records waypoints, and tracks just like a GPS and includes the metadata like time, date, and really any other attribute you care to log. You can also use it to plot stalks, measure distance, and log photos with your waypoints. When you want to look at the data its all easily exportable to Google earth.

I successfully used Avenza until I finally bought a Rhino 650...Its just hard to beat a Garmin GPS with the Hunt AZ map chips..Avenza is legit though and works really well even shows some water tanks.
