Which map datum that can be found on Garmin GPS units works best with the Cambodia Gecko Map? I can't remember which we settled on last winter. Thanks in advance.

| you got me on this one. I do have a garmin gps and just cross reference the coordinates with the gecko map. there is garmin software that you can pick up in the russian market. I dont have the detailed map in mine as I find it clutters the screen, but I do mark points as to find my way back to some neat things (and not to mention keep me from going in circles in some of those villages) |

Ah. Apparently, you find whatever datum you're using matches up fairly well with the Gecko map, no? If at all possible, could you take a look at you Garmin and see what you're using? My unit's fairly simple as well, so I'd like to at least get a datum that's close(which yours is, from the sounds of it). Go to you setup menu and click on "units" and it should show which datum you're currently using.
2 months to go! |

Jim, I'll be arriving in PP circa the 18th of January -- mind if I take a look at your GPS on an afternoon shortly thereafter(just want to check your datum, since it's apparently working for you)?
How's availability at the Cal 2 around then? |
