With mapping capability: Garmin GPSMAP 76 (~$310) Without mapping capability: Garmin GPS 76 (~$200) These have larger screens than most handheld receivers, are quite light (less than 8 ounces with batteries--lighter than a Garmin 12), and are reasonably compact. The specs listed on the Garmin website regarding size and weight are misleading and/or wrong. While somewhat larger than the Garmin 12, 12map, etc., they actually fit in most baggies, cases, etc., that are designed for the Garmin 12 series. (I know because I have a Garmin GPSMAP 76.)
