QUOTE(cy_an @ May 7 2007, 10:15 PM) If i'm now in forest, can i use mobile phone GPS to locate my location???? as long as you have clear line of sight to the sky, your gps should be able to lock on to at least 3 satellites and you will be able to know your position...... |

QUOTE(stimix @ May 18 2007, 08:18 PM) All GPSr can what....just put inside ur pocket or if u using backpack put at the bck of back pack on an open sky and ur PDA on ur hand....but for walking/jungle tracking special purpose GPSr such as Garmin 60CSx is recommended rather than BT GPSR/PDA combination as u are expected to walk/track longer period. PDA/BT GPSr combination battery won't last u long...the most 2hr! whereas Garmin GPSr vattery can last >8hrs on single charge i agree with stimix on battery power....but u can always have extra batteries if you can afford it....but that would mean more load for you to carry....which is not really a good idea for jungle tracking....anyway, just a a gauge, the Holux GPS Slim 236 can be used for 13 hours straight before the need to recharge (if i am not mistaken) the last time i used with my axim X51V, it can last for about 4 hours.....then i need to recharge my pda.... my Asus P535 with built in battery can last to about 4 to 5 hours...... |
