Which GPS to buy?

Thanks Simmo, I just assumed I would get the co-ords from Tengraph and have to put it in the 40e application.
Only signed up to Tengraph recently so need to use it and understand the process etc.
The old 'crawl before you can walk' scenario

No you dont need coords for a 40E application. You just select up to 10 graticular blocks within the live E lease that all must share one common side.

Just a heads up on the Trilobites app,my other half's crashed the last few days,she got in contact with them and it ended up she had to many trails on the app.
She couldn't access the app at all,they advised to delete and restore it,she lost all her marked spots in the process to,so if ya have heaps of trails on there it will or can cause problems....

I use GPS Kit as my tracker on the iPhone. It works on downloaded data so the phone can be on Airport. It will give me tracking in various colours that I'll often use changing it daily, it records distance, speed and more. I can measure from my location to a particular point or get a measurement from point to point.



I can take photos along the way and access them from the map.

I run Trilobite to keep me within the boundary's and to show mines ect. but the tracking is a bit unreliable. It also works from downloaded data and in most cases has better satellite imagery than GPS Kit.

My PLB stays attached to my harness but I found out recently that the zip on it's hard case was seized making it inaccessible so that needs to be checked and freed up from time to time.

This is what you see if I change the tracking colour each day. Each can be turned on or off at will.
