Using GPS

Using GPSUsing GPS

by Conrad Dixon

The Global Positioning System (GPS) is the first 24-hour, all weather navigation system. Now available to boaters at an affordable price, GPS is expected to become the predominant navigation system for boats; non-nautical applications are already in use. The author explains how to use and interpret the data received, as well as how to test for accuracy and make necessary corrections. He also advises what to look for when buying a set, how to achieve optimum accuracy, and he unravels the jargon associated with instruction manuals.

Five popular GPS models are examined in detail: Magellan, Raytheon Echostar, Garmin, Apelco, and Micrologic Admiral.
