The GPS 76 is
designed to provide precise GPS positioning
using correction data obtained from the Wide
Area Augmentation System (WAAS). This unit
features a built-in quad helix antenna for
superior reception and can provide position
accuracy to less than three meters when
receiving
WAAS corrections.
The GPS 76
provides 1 megabyte of internal user memory
to be used for storing downloaded Points of
Interest data. This 1 megabyte of storage
area is preloaded from the factory with
worldwide cities (populations greater than
200,000) and nautical navigation aids such
as lights, buoys, sound signals and day
beacons, and is perfect for downloading
points of interest detail from Garmin's line
of MapSource® CD-ROMs. The GPS 76 is also
preloaded with tide data for the United
States (unit is only compatible with USA
tidal stations).
An
extra-large display measuring 1.6"W x 2.2"H
gives users a clear view of information,
while a waterproof case means the GPS 76
will keep working well even if it's been
submerged in water. Even more amazing, this
unit will actually float if accidentally
dropped in the water. |
