Description
Backwoods, boundary waters, blue highways — the GPS 60 is your trusted guide to the great outdoors. The GPS 60 along with the GPSMAP 60 are packed with several of the features found in the 60 series color units, but sport an affordable, high-resolution, monochrome display for outdoor enthusiasts on a budget.
The GPS 60 is a non-mapping unit that comes factory pre-loaded with a 1 MB marine point database that includes worldwide cities. Like the other products in the 60 series, this trusty handheld is compact and lightweight, with a user-friendly interface. It's reliable and extra-precise as WAAS can make it. The unit also offers a dedicated geocaching mode, indoor/outdoor games, an alarm clock, sunrise/sunset and moon phase tables, optimal hunting and fishing times — plus much more.
The GPS 60 makes it easy to navigate the great outdoors on a budget.
- Sunlight-readable, four-level grayscale transflective FSTN display (1.5" W x 2.2" H; 2.6" diagonally)(160 x 240 pixels)
- WAAS GPS receiver with accuracy to 10 feet in North America; built-in quad-helix antenna for better satellite reception
- 28 hours of battery life under typical-use conditions (uses two "AA" batteries)
- Waterproof to IEC 60529 IPX7 standards (can be submerged in one meter of water for up to 30 minutes)
- External Power, Antenna and USB/Serial jacks

A great GPS unit
Review by: dharmasoldat, 2007-04-11
A barebones unit that is kickass for reception, and even better when paired with a lightweight (60g) high-gain external antenna. I've gotten reception with this puppy when friends' units have gone long since dead. Durable as anything else on the market, and even got a chance to test out the waterproofing. Bomber.
If you don't mind a little extra weight, this bad boy will serve you well with dynamite reception - which is the key to a good GPS. Without reception, why bring it?
