>Yep; according to Garmin, this is a "design feature". [SNIP] I use a Garmin 48 and also keep mine in a waterproof pouch (Aquapac). Garmin claims the 48 is waterproof, but the antennae worries me. Since I have had bad luck in the past with waterproof claims (read my many posts on my Icom VHF), I'd rather be safe than sorry. The pouch is also nice in that it floats, has some additional UV protection, and has a lanyard attached. It has never impeded my using the GPS. -Patrick -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Patrick Maun pmaun_at_bitstream.net *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List Submissions: paddlewise_at_lists.intelenet.net Subscriptions: paddlewise-request_at_lists.intelenet.net Website: http://www.gasp-seakayak.net/paddlewise/ ***************************************************************************Received on Mon Feb 22 1999 - 13:41:31 PST
