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.
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.

GPS 76 receiver
PC Cable
