Wir geben Tipps zu den von uns eingestellten Optionen in Garmin Outdoor GPS Geräten - nicht nur für die Ersteinrichtung, sondern auch für den Betrieb unterwegs. Die Tipps gelten für eTrex, eTrex Touch, GPSmap, Oregon, Montana.

It's our 28th podcast. In today's podcast we …… 2 mins 30 seconds - Chat about the dreaded C word, yes Christmas. What top kit is around and is tempting us as we approach the festive period. Don't worry it's not all going to be about the most expensive thing in the market we will chat about things for all budgets. 40 mins - Then we are going to chat over the all new GPSMAP86s and 86i, these are Outdoor GPS units that are very much aimed at the Sea Kayakers etc but they have a couple of interesting twists compared to the 66s and 66i that Garmin already produce. 48 mins - And then we have Ian's FAQ's, Garmin unit, Garmin watch and SatMap 1. So Ian, it's the start of November and here we go, we start the build up to Christmas, in the next few minutes we are going to look at some of te must have things we would have on our Christmas lists. Best budget GPS (under £300.00) - GPSMAP64sx – Sleeping giant in this category or old unit rebranded? eTrex 22x and 32x (you could get both of these with Birdseye Plus Vouchers) Touch 25 (you could also get this with Birdseye Plus Voucher and of course the Touch 35, which sadly with a Birdseye Plus voucher would push it over the £300.00 ceiling. Best top end GPS unit (under £500.00) – including maps Oregon 700 with TOPO PRO 1:50k/ Birdseye Plus Voucher GPSMAP66s with TOPO PRO 1:50k/ Birdseye Plus Voucher GPSMAP66i, with just the TOPO ACTIVE maps would also just sneak into this bracket by 1p. SatMap Active 20 with 1:50k maps Best top end GPS unit (unlimited budget) Whatever you want – Oregon 700/750, 66s, 66i and Active 20 all these you could get with 1:25k and 1:50k and the Active 20 also comes with 1:10k Best Accessories for those already got a Garmin handheld GPS unit, lets put a budget on this, lets sat £25.00 and think of a practical accessory (which you would buy for yourself) and that accessory you may ask someone to buy for you, maybe less practical but good fun. Practical Backpack tether - £17.99Bike Mount - £9.99Garmin retractable Lanyard - £19.99Garmin Carry case – £9.99/ £11.99Silicone case (eTrex Touch users) - £10.99Good batteries and charger? Less Practical but fun Tempe sensor - £24.99Chirp - £20.00 And then moving onto GPS Watches – Now I think watches are going to be the big thing this Christmas, I know many of our listeners are handheld users but who does not want a smart GPS watch on your wrist Best Budget – Under £400.00 In this category we have only got a couple of watches – Garmin Instinct - £269.99Casio ProTrek WSD-30 - £399.99 (works with Viewranger app) Best top end (unlimited budget) Fenix 6 - £599.99Fenix 6s - £599.99Fenix 6 Sapphire - £699.99Fenix 6s Sapphire - £699.99Fenix 6x Sapphire - £749.99Fenix 6x Solar Edition - £849.99And we must mention all the Fenix 5's are still out there Anything else we have mentioned that you would upgrade, purchase, maps, inReach Mini's, Power packs, Solar panel chargers Goal Zero kit And if you want to find out more about some of the products we have discussed go to gpstraining.co.uk – click on – GPS Store on the top menu – then – on the left-hand side you will see the different categories for the products we have discussed 2 – The next thing we look at on this month's Podcast is a look at the all new 86s and 86i We ordered some yesterday from Garmin yesterday but Garmin describe it as – GPSMAP® 86s - Marine Handheld Preloaded With Worldwide Basemap £349.99 and £519.99 (£399.99 and £499.99 for 66s and 66i without maps – interesting comparison. Water-resistant, floating design, sunlight-readable 3" display and button operation provide ease of use on the water Built in battery, on both models, just like the GPSMAP66i, very interesting as heard nothing but good reports about that. Has memory card slot but Garmin don't say if we can put Outdoor Maps (OS maps) on, lets see, I think it may just be the case of putting a TOPO PR...

Welcome to this month's GPS Training podcast, it's our 17th episode. Today we have Andy and myself, Jon As always, we are streaming it live on Facebook. So if you want to see what we all look like take a look at our Facebook page Just search for GPS Training on Facebook and don't forget to ‘like' our page. So, without further ado let's get on with today's podcast …… It's our 17th podcast. In today's podcast we are going to look at the following – • Best budget GPS for Christmas • Geoffrey the Bot, all will become clear, I hope • 2018 Ordnance Survey mapping - Routable TOPO PRO • Online resource update – restructuring • Andy's Top Tips, both Garmin and SatMap • Download .gpx files - what's that about • And Finally, what piece of kit is on each of our Christmas lists 1. Best budget GPS for Christmas 2018 So, Andy, as we approach Christmas 2018 what is the best ‘budget' GPS unit. First of all I think we need to clarify, what's are we going to classify as a ‘budget GPS unit' – let's say - £350.00 or less - Garmin eTrex 20x with 3,000 sq km of mapping - more - Garmin eTrex 30x with 3,000 sq km mapping - more - Garmin eTrex Touch 25 with 3,000 sq km of mapping - more - Garmin eTrex Touch 35 with 3,000 sq km of mapping - more - eTrex Touch 25t with Discoverer 1:50k maps - more - eTrex Touch 25t with TOPO PRO 1:50k maps - more 2 – Geoffrey our GPS Training Bot This week we have launched ‘Geoffrey the GPS Training Bot'. We are currently showcasing him to the public as we are training him but in the next few weeks, he will find his final home inside the GPS Training online resource. Geoffrey the bot constantly analyses and catalogues any answers we email to customers and with a little bit of AI, its more learning and indexing rather than artificial Intelligence, but AI is the current buzz word, he will hopefully start to answer your GPS tech questions. We have all been very entertained in the last few days so please do give him a go and over time his knowledge will hopefully broaden as we add more data for him to draw from. To put Geoffrey the GPS Training Bot through his paces please click here and you will see Godfrey down the bottom left of our support portal. I hope you find him as entertaining as we have! 3 - 2018 Ordnance Survey mapping - Routable TOPO PRO, this is just for Garmin users. So Andy the TOPO Pro rears it's head again and 2018 map cards, can we clarify this for the final time? We are getting so many customers on the phone who, rightly, are totally confused by the different Ordnance Survey map options - Garmin Discoverer – 1:50k and 1:25k Garmin TOPO PRO – 1:50k and 1:25k Garmin Birdseye map download – 1:25k To find out more about any of these different map options please click here. SatMap Andy is a little more straightforward? Routable off-road data on a SatMap, how does that work and is it on all map types? And with SatMap we have three different Map options with GPS units – - 1:50k - 1:25k - Platinum To find out more about the mapping options please click here. 4 – Online resource update – restructuring - Firstly, Andy what is the GPS Training online resource?

Welcome to this month’s GPS training podcast 1. Today we have Jon, Andy and Henry 2. Jon, managing director Shepherds Walks Ltd who is the parent company of GPS Training. 3. Andy, the reviewer, tech support and all round ‘geek’ (in a nice way) of GPS Training. 4. Henry, is multi-talented. Is one of our trainers at GPS Training, delivering our courses on Fife, Lakes, Northumberland and Sherwood Forest. He is also one of our walking guides for Shepherds Walks Holidays and the practical use of Outdoor GPS units as a ‘professional’ walking guide is why he is our guest on today’s Podcast Again, we are streaming on Facebook the recording of us all recording the Podcast, so if you want to see what we all look like take a look at our Facebook page – 1. Just search for GPS Training on Facebook and don’t forget to ‘like’ our page. 2. A copy of our live stream is archived on Facebook so you can watch it until the end of time, if you want to! 3. Also in the next few days we will also upload the video feed onto YouTube. So, without further ado let’s get on with today’s podcast …… In today’s podcast we are going to look and chat over the following – 1. An in-depth look at the Garmin inReach – Satellite communicator 2. And after a question from one of the listeners of last month’s podcast we are going to look at the differences between the Garmin Topo and Topo active mapping. 3. Christmas GPS offers – Oregon 700 and eTrex Touch 25 4. Top tips – both SatMap and Garmin 5. Look at our weekly video top tips – in our online resource 6. SatMap Active 20 – Battery replacement options 7. The big debate – If you were going to get an outdoor GPS unit this Christmas, which one would it be? 8. And finally, we will have a look at our courses we have coming up over the coming month 1. An in-depth look at Garmin inReach 1. What is the Garmin inReach, it’s not just a GPS unit is it? • Two-way satellite communicator, using the Iridium satellites, the same as a Sat Phone uses. • You can send both pre-set and text messages from the unit via satellites. • It can also be used as a GPS navigator, but I personally think it does not replace a standalone GPS navigational unit. • SOS button - GEOS Worldwide, LTD is an independent emergency response organization headquartered outside of Houston, Texas. Their high-tech underground facility is the central component in their International Emergency Response Coordination Center (IERCC). That facet of their operation is somewhat self-explanatory. When GEOS receives a distress call, their IERCC department swings into action to coordinate an immediate and appropriate response. Sounds simple enough, but what does that actually mean? • GEOS also maintains a large network of offices around the globe in Perth, Marrakech, Paris, London, New York, San Jose, and Los Angeles. • You need a contract to get a Garmin inReach to work (like a mobile phone contract) and these start from £12.99/month but a little more for a more usable contract. I think we pay around £25.00/ month which is a good mid-range contract. • Contracts vary according to number of Text messages you want to send each months and if your tracking points are included in the contract or not. The interesting thing is that all pre-set messages are unlimited and also the SOS button works on whatever contract you are on 2. Other products in the marketplace • Sole Walkers – SPOT 3. SPOT – Comes in at £119.99 - What is the SPOT? - Satellite GPS personal tracker - You have a number of pre-set messages you can send, you set these up yourself online and you can send to multiple e-mail and text numbers - Live tracking place – both online and in app - Contracts are a little cheaper - £17.99 for unlimited everything - You still get the GEOS SOS support - Lightweight and stunning battery life BUT you can only send messages and not receive them 4.

Review of the Garmin eTrex 25 and 35 4. Top tips – both SatMap and Garmin 5. The GPS Training online resource – what is it – for both Garmin, SatMap and to a lesser extent Memory Map GPS unit 6. The big debate – GB What Mapping do we prefer OS 1:50k or 1:25k advantages, price, what will work best for us and the activities we are using the mapping for (Both Satmap & Garmin) 7. And finally, we will have a look at our courses we have coming up over the coming month An in depth look at SatMap, the story and the units that they have developed over the years 1. How and by whom was SatMap founded? • Founded in 2005 2. They really did take the market by storm and changed the Outdoor GPS market, what did Garmin bring to the ‘field’ in those early days. • OS map on Outdoor GPS device • Quality Colour Screen • Great battery life 3. How have the SatMap units developed – SatMap Active 10, 12 and now 20 • Active 10 launched in 2007 • Active 12 launched in 2014, how was this different than the SatMap Active 10? • Active 20 launched this year, 2017. This was a big change than the Active 10/12 4. The key thing about SatMap – the HD maps, what options are available? 5. We are not going to review the unit again in this podcast, listen to our first ever podcast if you want to hear this but what are the key benefits of the SatMap Active 20 Take a look on our website – gpstraining.co.uk – click on reviews and you will see an article SatMap active 20 – 3 months in Now turning to Garmin – Lets look at the 1:25k mapping option for a Garmin GPS and specifically Topo Active, what is it? 1. Two options of mapping – Discoverer Premium and TOPO PRO • What are the differences 2. Ways to buy 1:25k mapping for a Garmin • Bundled in with unit on map card or Birdseye Voucher • What is a Birdseye Voucher and how big an area can you download with it? • If you do choose the Birdseye option we send you a step by step guide of how to do it and there are also videos in online resource. Review of the Garmin eTrex 25 and 35 1. Where does the eTrex Touch range sit in the Garmin range? 2.
