Hi Mike and all!
Yesterday, I took my Trekker out with the Holux 236 and it was interesting
to see the difference between what Trekker and the Braille Note did.
First I have been living on a golf course for 2 years and yesterday the
Trekker told me the name of the golf course.
When I hit the Information button on Trekker I learned that 8 satellites
were in view and the quality was "high!" We did not ever hear whether waas
was turned on and where I exercise my dog, we always get a "waas" reading in
at least 2 sections of the area.
I have used Trekker since it came out, first with the Garman wired receiver
which was attached to a special tray. The accuracy was at times better than
the Braille Note Especially in the days of the Magellan 310 and Spor-track
receivers.
Then last summer I took the Trekker out with the Blue Logger and the
coverage and accuracy wasnot nearly as good. I would loose coverage and the
Blue Logger took forever getting a fix (which I talked about quite a bit in
using it with the Braille Note too.)
So I find the Holux vastly superior in accuracy in whatever gps system I use
it and would highly recommend it to anyone inquiring about receivers.
Hope this helps.
