Hi Judy, that is a good question and does depend on your receiver and how tall the buildings are around you. If you have the holux m-1000 you could try Instantaneous, but I would try all 3 and see what works best for you in your particular city environment and walking speed.


Thanks
Charles.

Hi Leslie
This is taken from the GPS 4.2 manual.


11.1             Heading Averaging Mode

Selecting this option allows you to tell the system the frequency you
wish to have the heading updated.  There are three options:

1)    Automatic: When you select automatic the frequency of your
heading is updated by speed.  The faster you are moving the faster a
new heading is obtained. If you are moving slowly, it takes more time
to update your heading.
2)    Instantaneous: This option will get the heading directly from
the receiver.  This gives you the fastest heading updates. This gives
you the fastest heading updates but due to GPS fluctuation this also
has the highest probability of being incorrect.
3)    City (Urban Canyon): This option is the slowest at updating
your heading.  Use this option in cities like New York or San
Francisco.  Selecting this mode in conjunction with the "set GPS
heading mode" may help maintain a direction of travel when
experiencing the effects of urban Canyon.
