[RCBSONS1 at aol.com]

I HAVE AN OLDER GARMIN UNIT.  I HAVE A MOUNT ON THE DASH
OF THE PANTERA.  I ALSO HAVE A SPECIAL SHOCK MOUNT THAT
I RUN ON MY STREET LEGAL KTM 520 DIRT BIKE.  IT WAS ALSO
SHOCK RESISTANT TREATED BY A COMPANY IN WASHINGTON.
IT AMAZES ME HOW THIS THING CAN KEEP TRACK OF THE SATILITES
AS WE BLAST THROUGH THE FORESTS WITH TREES, MOUNTAINSIDES
AND VALLEYS THAT ARE DEEP AND TIGHT.

MY BUDDY AND I WILL PULL UP AT THE TOP OF A PEAK AND WE
CAN SEE THE ELEVATION OF EACH BIKE CALIBRATE A FEW
SECONDS AFTER WE STOP.  I HAVE SAT ON A MOUNTAIN PEAK
AND IT TELLS ME VIRGINA CITY A FEW MILES ONE WAY, RENO A FEW
MILES OFF IN ANOTHER DIRECTION AND CARSON CITY BACK A
FEW MILES FROM WHERE WE CAME FROM.

I WILL BE RUNNING THIS UNIT AT THE SILVER STATE IN MAY
