This is a response to the post from Harold regarding GPS 
errors.
Harold, A friend of mine by the name of Sarah Ohmann 
told me a few years ago about a user group that went to 
test GPS systems. A group of three testers stood right 
next to each other and turned on the expensive GPS 
systems to see how much the lat. long. readings would be 
between the units. They were surprised at how different 
the results were from each other. Then one of the 
testers thought that the units might be interfering with 
each other. They tested the units at the same spot one 
at a time. They found that the readings all of the units 
gave were very similar. 
That could be the reason why your GPS error occurred in 
your group. 

Good Paddling and GPS reading,
Don Dimond
