Summary: Since I need to work in GIS, I am returning this model to REI tomorrow and getting one of the other Garmin models that will connect to DNR Garmin - personnel in store know little to nothing about GPS receivers, there is scant helpful info on the Garmin website, or online, that I have found - the Garmin 62S is just pretty pictures, not a useful tool, with an instruction manual short on info and poorly-written.
