Garmin is best known for their large variety of GPS units. What
they've done here is that they've incorporated these GPS units with GMRS handie-talkies.
Obviously an urban dweller might not have the best use for models such as these... but hikers, ranchers,
farmers, anyone who regularly gets off the beaten path, may find these particularly useful. Of course it's
not necessary to buy two, if your accomplice won't be out of radio range; you'll be the primary GPS holder while
still being able to direct the rest of the group.
Because these 2-way radios are both a GMRS Handie and a GPS unit, they are pricey compared to a GMRS only
unit. If you're looking for a GMRS to keep track of the kids in the neighborhood or any other leisurely
activity, you probably won't want to shell out a couple of C-notes for an added GPS option. But if you
like to hike in the bush with others, this is definitely the ticket for you!
