The GPSMAP 76Cx is a refreshing upgrade of the GPSMAP 76C, one of the most popular Garmin’s models for outdoor and marine use. This unit features a removable microSD card for detailed mapping memory and a waterproof, rugged housing. The microSD card slot is located inside the waterproof battery compartment. Users can load map data and transfer routes and waypoints through the unit’s fast USB connection. In addition, this unit features a new, highly sensitive GPS receiver that acquires satellites faster and lets users track their location in challenging conditions, such as heavy foliage or deep canyons.Considered the mainstay among serious outdoor enthusiasts, the GPSMAP 76Cx offers a large color TFT display and turn-by-turn routing capability. This unit also floats when dropped in the water.
Customer Review: read the reviews about installing maps
Before buying read all the review comments about problems installing maps. I ordered this unit a month ago and still can’t use it. The map that comes with shows little more detail than Interstate highways. So, I ordered what I thought was City Navigator NT map software from Amazon but it was an update and could not be installed unless I already owned the software. Garmin agreed for an additional $30 (in addition to the $70 paid for the update) to exchange the update for the actual City Navigator NT and promised that I would receive the replacement in 4 days after receipt of my return. I received it 18 days after I sent them the update by Priority Mail. Now, when I try to install the software, the unlock code does not work. Nothing on the web page instructs how to do so if there are problems. I’m calling on the Friday before Labor Day, and they are closed through the weekend. So, no possibility of using it for Labor Day travels. I had also wanted to use this unit for hiking but consider the option of installing topo maps to be impossible. The unit satellite system works very well, but unless you are prepared to go through the expense of buying a different mapping software for every use and go through the complications of getting them installed, it’s basically a nice (and expensive) paperweight that shows your coordinates.
Customer Review: I will never be lost again
Great product. Takes some learning as it is not as intuitive as I would have liked, but the easy way is not always best. I highly recommend this product.
