Mike,
I don't have any of those units, but here's my opinion.
I have the legend B&W and a LegendCx, both having "non electronic" compass.
I have no problem with it and don't have to calibrate often like some of the
owners seem to need to do. I know whenever the batteries are changed, it
MUST be recalibrated. But, it can be tuned off too and then works like the
non "s" units. If I were going to buy one, it would be the 60Cx, unless
there were just a few dollars difference.
As far as the 76, it has the same sirf chip but a slightly larger screen and
case, and the button layout is a little different. The antenna does not
stick out of the top of the case either. It also seems to have a more
metallic case than the rubberized 60 series. I know LeRoy has one and really
likes it.
