Garmin handheld units give grid squares and indicate directions. If you want one that talks, possibly not.

The Garmin 205 and 255 I have both will give lat/long if you go to the Where am I? screen under tools. This is the same screen that has the option to show the nearest hospital, fire dept, or gas station I think. 73, Drew KO4MA Hello Is there a GPS device that has the capability of 1. giving directions 2. showing lat/long or even grid squares 73 Bob W7LRD ___ Sent via amsat...@amsat.org.
