Are Accessories Useful For New Gps (garmin C330)?

Posted by: Chris - GPS Mania In: Garmin GPS

I got the GPS as a gift. It comes with a mount already. Why would I buy a separate dashboard mount (available on Amazon for $30)?
Also, I’ve seen antiglare screens. Are they useful? Will they help reduce washout that can occur when the sun shines on the unit?
Thans for your help!

My Gps Coordinates From My Garmin Gps Unit Seem To Be Off?

Posted by: Chris - GPS Mania In: Garmin GPS

I marked several places on my Garmen GPS when I was in the field on my last trip. When I download my GPS coordinates that I programed into my Garmen hand held unit, the all seem to be off by quite a few meters. When I plug the same units into google earth, they all show up in the wrong place, but my GPS can find the coordinates time after time when in the field.
Are there different systems for calculating GPS that could be accounting for this? If so, is there a simple formula to correct for this? Or is there something wrong with my GPS?

Hi, yes you can:
