    I got it a couple weeks ago and has worked well after the shot (hog hunting in OK). The only thing I don't like is that you can't mark waypoints on the map unless you are located there. Is there something I am missing.... So that I could mark a stand site while sitting in my living room?

    Dunno... I'm just starting to mess with it. With this I don't think I'll need my GPS anymore.

    They do have a "contact us" feature on it. Maybe you could ask them?

    Let's us know what you find out.

    TIA....

    As far as being able to mark positions without being there physically, this is the reply I received:

    "Thanks for contacting Trimble outdoors – Cabela’s Recon Hunt.
    At this time you can only manually edit the position and enter the lat/long coordinates of the location that you need to mark. We are implementing the feature which will allow you to touch the map and mark the coordinates - the update should be available shortly.
    We certainly appreciate your business and apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused."
