[Wswss] [Mw] GPS and Grid Squares

[Chuck Smallhouse]

Pat,

I think that most Garmin units have that capability.  Even my oldest 
a IIIA. as well as my  60CSX, my Foretrex 201, and now a Nuvi 500 all 
do that.  Sometimes even reading the manual, it's operation as a 
Maiden Head location display, can be a bit obscure.

Also there are programs available for the Palm OS, on PDAs, that also 
will provide that conversion.

If you are planning on buying new, put the clerk to the test and have 
him demonstrate the capability !

Chuck,  W7CS
