SOLD

Post by Ambul8 »

I have for sale my Garmin GPS 76. This is a great GPS unit which was mainly used in the car mounting bracket with very little use "outside". The unit is in excellent condition (it has 1 small scratch on face) and I am only selling it due to my recent acquisition of a TomTom. The unit was mainly used plugged into my laptop running with OziExplorer.

The unit is supplied with all original packing plus the quick start guide and full instruction manual. As a bonus it also includes:

* Car Mounting Bracket (does need new double sided tape)
* GPS - Serial Comm Cable
* USB - Serial & Parallel Adapter (RRP $59)

Selling for $289 PM me for any enquiries

This unit retails for $389

Here is the sales guff......

The ALL-in-ONE GPS from Garmin.
It floats, it's got memory for upload of map positions, it has a large screen, and it's got worldwide navigation aids.

The GPS76 12 channel waterproof hand-held will appeal to heavy duty users and professionals alike- offshore and on. Area measurement for farming and other rural applications. Area measurement is simple and fast. Just walk, drive or ride around the perimeter to be measured, press a button, and there you have it. A really productive feature for farmers, botanists, agronomists, graziers, oyster and fish culture, salt-works... etc etc.

New technology includes a built-in quadrifilar antenna for superior reception (external aerial is optional), The GPS76 is also compatible with the Wide Area Augmentation System (WAAS), which means you will get even greater location accuracy (where WAAS is operational). View your location on a large, sharp, four-level grayscale screen for excellent separation and contrast. Be aware with the audible alrms for waypoints, hazards, and anchor.
