Hi, all...........
I just received an e-mail from a supplier about the Garmin Rino. Has
anyone else heard this info... any confirmation?
I have just received an email from one of the general wholesale
distributors
who now offer Garmin products. The email indicates the RINO models are
being dropped. I do not know what this means at this time.
At this time the Garmin company ( a public traded corp.) has chosen
to drop
offering their products through full support dealerships and now are
simply
flooding wholesale marking companies with old outdated products.
I am currently at the OUTDOORS SUMMER trade show in Salt lake City Utah,
where new technologies are being announced.
I highly suggest waiting a week for further feedback and availability.
A new development in the GPS technology is the newly formed Magellan
company; now a privately held company.
Bushnell is offering the most advanced GPS technology for 2008. I
highly
recommend waiting for this new development.
What is the status of the new generation of trackers ( Tracker2, I
think?). As I understand, the innovation is that they are digipeaters
as well. Correct?
For SAR GPS tracking, on each field searcher, we would still need a
radio, a tracker, and a mapping GPS. Is that correct? Or can a GPS
receiver like the Deluo be used in place of the "mapping GPS"?
Is there any company that anyone knows of that is working on a unit with
the radio/gps/tracker that will work on the APRS network -- aka, a Rino
for Ham?
Many thanx............... jt
