[aprssig] Whuich GPS for APRS ???

[DALE BLANCHARD]

I used a Garman GPS-3+ for many years on my motorcycle. In rain, 115 f heat.
It has been to Key West, Canada, Mexico. The rest of the time it sits on the dash of my truck that gets up to 170 f when parked in Nevada at my house.
My AV Map won't do any of that.

hi all thanks for the feedback, yes the garmin handheld (backpacking) gps 
did not take the rain nor did it take the heat on my handle bars of my 
motorcycle here in michigan last summer. died.

so the heat killed it and so did the rain, will never buy another. (they 
even claimd it was water proff)
