Anywhere wx Compaq

hey.

i've used one of these for the last 2 years..I had to return the
first unit due to a problem with the compaq unit, but after that
no problems at all.

have recently upgraded to a garmin 430, and will be getting
one of those gps map garmin 196 units soon, so doubt that i'll
use the anywhere wx as much.

I do recommend the HAICOM GPS antenna for the unit, one of
my partners has some other brand and it simply does not work
as well.

the database that these guys use is pretty impressive, all the
radio, tv, cell towers are shown..great tool for flight planning
into unknown areas..you can enter your data and choose an
option to actually "fly" the route--from your home..this has
been a big help to me as far as obstacle avoidance and alternate
route planning.

GET THE EXTRA POWER SUPPLY..this will allow you to operate
off of a lighter plug, beats worrying about batteries.

If you are anywhere near Sumter, SC..drop me a line, i'll be
happy to lend you my unit for a few days..as i mentioned-got
these "new" toys to learn.

hope this helps
