Garmin eTrex GPS Comparison

There’s a whole line of eTrex handheld GPS units, but no really good side-by-side comparison of all of them. So here’s my attempt.

    Hi

    Just wanted to let you know, I have the yellow waterproof model and the aerial is terrible. It drops satellites even if you’re just holding it in your hand.. I wouldn’t recommend it. :)

    Hope this helps.
