Couple of questions.
Been looking at the GPS with two radio options (Rhino 120's). My question is, for a pair of these in a package will run ~600.00. We are hooked on the feature of knowing where each other is. Now for my share of the cost (300.00), I could buy a much better GPS (~250.00) and my share of the two radios (probably better range 18 miles rated, I know they might be good for half of that).
1)IF I opt for the better GPS, can I get coordinates of buddies via the two way and manually log them into my GPS to know their location without actually being at that spot to make a way/log point?
2)If there a major difference in how many satellites the GPS tracks. Most GPS's on the market track 12, but Magellan says 14?
I know that I will be carrying more weight with two pieces of equipment, might I think it could be worth it.
I would appreciate any input that anyone has.
Thanks
