Manufacturer Description |
Please note that we are currently limiting order quantities to two (2) units per order.
The Garmin GPSMAP 76CSx is a refreshing upgrade of the Garmin GPSMAP 76CS, one of our most popular models for outdoor and marine use. This unit features a removable microSD card for detailed mapping memory and a waterproof, rugged housing. The microSD card slot is located inside the waterproof battery compartment. Users can load map data and transfer routes and waypoints through the unit's fast USB connection.
In addition, this unit features a new, highly sensitive GPS receiver that acquires satellites faster and lets users track their location in challenging conditions, such as heavy foliage or deep canyons. The Garmin GPSMAP 76CSx also incorporates a barometric altimeter for extremely accurate elevation data and an electronic compass that displays an accurate heading while standing still.
Considered the mainstay among serious outdoor enthusiasts, the Garmin GPSMAP 76CSx and Garmin GPSMAP 76Cx offer a large color TFT display and turn-by-turn routing capability. These units also float when dropped in the water. Each unit comes with a blank 128 MB microSD card. Owners of these new x-series handhelds can also purchase new microSD cards that are pre-loaded with MapSource® Topo and inland lake maps, BlueChart marine cartography, and City Navigator street maps.
The Garmin GPSMAP 76CSx and Garmin GPSMAP 76Cx are Garmin GPS units with Color Screens and MicroSD (also called TransFlash) card memory. The Cx range includes 4 other units consisting of the GPSMAP 60Cx, GPSMAP 60CSx, eTrex Legend Cx and eTrex Vista Cx.
