User questions & answers

Question:	will the 78s do loran to gps conversions
Answer:	No. I don't know of any conversion programs
Question:	Does the basemap that comes with it show the marine topography
Answer:	No, this device is meant for land activities not marine although it display your location, distance, etc.
Question:	If I program a waypoint, does it show a "path" and then clearly indicate where I am relative to the desired path
Answer:	Yes -- think of it as setting a MOB (man overboard). Once you start tracking the MOB, a path is outlined as to where you are relative to the original mark, plus the bearing back (or reciprical) and distance back to the mark. The same is for using a waypoint. Once the waypoint is set, you can go to it using FIND button, click on the waypoint, hit GO and you get the same path shown plus the reciprical bearing and distance.
Question:	Does this gps come preloaded with coastal basemaps or do you need to purchase separately
Answer:	The gps 78s come with The microSD card ?
Question:	Hi, does the product come in its original box
Answer:	Comes in a Garmin Refurbished unit Box
Question:	What SD Card is used
Answer:	Normal
Question:	what maps does this come with and how do you get additional maps
Answer:	Do need additional detail map
Question:	Is this accurate enough to measure property lines
Answer:	I used mine for that purpose, but realizing it will be accurate to about 20 feet, so it will not be absolute.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is this model the 78sc
Answer:	as per the picture of this model it does NOT look like it is the sc model. i have the 78sc and it is labeled that way on the front of the unit
Question:	hi again, morning. does the gamin model 78 have build in compass? thanks
Answer:	In spite of the large number of "yes" answers, the answer is NO. The 78 has no compass, but you can select the more expensive 78s, near the top of the listing. It and the even more expensive 78sc DO have a compass (and a barometer/altimeter). You don't really need a compass with a GPS, since walking a few feet in any direction can produce a track on the screen, which shows you the direction you're moving. A GPS is much more useful than a compass. To be clear, the 78 does have a compass "page" which can show you which way you're moving, but if you stop it doesn't work. It can also show your altitude, but without an altimeter the altitude estimate averages about twice the error as the location estimate, so it might not be too useful.
Question:	Does theGarmin GPS78sc come with already downloaded marine charts or not? I need one for the greater Puget Sound area, but and need charts for it

Question:	what is the difference between 78 and 78sc
Answer:	78sc = Sensors and Charts78s= Sensors , no charts78= no sensors, no chartsSensors are Barometer and Compass

User questions & answers

Question:	Can this be charged with a USB power bank
Answer:	Mine can only be charged in the charging cradle that came with the unit. It can be connected to either AC or 12V DC. I'm not aware of an adapter to charge off USB.
Question:	Can you actually navigate with it
Answer:	This is an excellent product. The menu and screens are a little difficult to learn, however the time taken is worthwhile. Navigation and waypoints are easy to establish. Deleting waypoints is rather difficult to do. The battery life is very good, and lasts over 24 hrs with limited use. Great backup. I recommend this product.
Question:	What is the maximum range in miles
Answer:	4-5 miles line of sight flat water. Land/island interference a lot less. Higher External antenna extends range considerably. Good radio and features for the price
Question:	I noticed the package says hx890 is for us and hx890e is for asia and others. can someone tell me the difference as i reside in asia
Answer:	There is a difference in the assignment of frequencies to channel numbers as well as different default hailing and emergency frequencies. You could use either radio with a conversion table handy, but it is far easier to use the appropriate local configuration.

User questions & answers

Question:	Does the 78sc include the Great Lakes coastal areas
Answer:	Hi Thomas,Since I just have the 78 I'm not sure. With the 78 I bought the micro card that gives me maps of all US, Canada, some Bahamas and Mexico. The original GPS without the card gave only a no detail sketch of landmasses. with the card, it does show depths and boys of the great lakes areas. According to the west marine catalogue, the SC comes with the chart I bought preloaded, which is a really good deal. Had I realized I would be buying the chip, it would have made more sense to get the SC. I'm thinking about adding the chip with topographic features for land travel. http://www.westmarine.com/buy/garmin--gpsmap-78sc-marine-handheld-gps-receiver-with-compass-and-barometer--11553609

User questions & answers

Question:	What's the range/distance with this on
Answer:	That answer is completely dependent on your surroundings and how much of the area will block the signal ... or not! If you want this radio to provide communication over short distances it is a good choice but if you are wanting it for emergency or long distance your best choice would be to upgrade to a standard full powered radio WITH a much more capable add on marine antenna.
Question:	What accessaries does it come with
Answer:	It comes with a charger and a stand to hold it during charging, and a belt clip
Question:	Do I need a license to use these radios
Answer:	No
Question:	Are the batteries replaceable, if so what is the cost
Answer:	Those are two EXCELLENT questions!!!! I just recently had to discard a small favorite portable TV of mine because it had built in batteries that failed and would not work. I took it apart to see the circuitry to find it would have been next to impossible to repair myself or extremely expensive or impractical to have it done. I AM HAPPY TO REPORT TO YOU THAT THIS ICOM RADIO HAS REPLACEABLE BATTERY PACKS! The battery pack is a "BP-285" 7.2 volt 1485 mAh (minimum) - 1570 mAh (typical) capacity with a battery life of 9 hours calculated with some very specific conditions (noted in manual). I am assuming "life" means how long it will operate on a single full charge under the conditions stated in the manual. FYI: I have been using ICOM marine radios for OVER 35 years and all of them basically still work (i.e., squelch on one has failed but the radio still works, and the other has lights (back lighting) that have burned out but the radio still works). For any electronic device to work that long in a harsh marine environment is a credit to the design and manufacturer who fabricated it ... that is why I support them, recommend them and trust them with my life, my crew and my guests (literally).

User questions & answers

Question:	Can the DSC be registered for those who are kayakers or rent small craft, but do not own a boat
Answer:	Yes. Go to the BoatUS website and register online for a free MMSI number. You program the MMSI number into the radio. Very important point - the red distress button does -nothing- unless you have an MMSI number programmed into the radio. You do not have to own a boat in order to get an MMSI number. When you do the online registration for the MMSI, just indicate someplace in the registration that you use various rented boats.
Question:	Can the radio measure maximum speed, average speed, and distance traveled over a course
Answer:	Hello,The manual for this product states the following:GPSYour current location, course and speed can be displayed in a numerical or compass style.16.8This section allows you to set the speed, distance (nm) and altitude units.This units allows you to set waypoints and know the distance between them and also displays the distance to a distressed vessel.Thanks.
Question:	looking to purchase 2. Can this be used as a two-way when island hoping without having to register an mmsi number
Answer:	Yes. In addition to being a conventional VHF Marine radio, it also is a Digital Selective Calling radio. Once you enter mmsi numbers, it is nearly like upgrading an old rotary phone to a smartphone. You would enter mmsi numbers in each radios directory. Then when you want to call a buddy, go thru the individual directory and select the other radio and select a quiet channel to drag him to. He could have his radio on, with volume very low. Once you call him, his radio will automatically be switched to the quiet channel you selected. Then he will hear bells, gradually getting louder. He would then raise his volume, acknowledge the call then both radios would become just like conventional VHF radios. The radio actually does a LOT more, including the capability to ask his radio for his position. You would automatically get the range and bering to him. All of this is in addition to a very big feature of giving the coast Guard and all other boaters your position if you have a distress situation. You should definitely (but don't NEED to) get a free mmsi number and enter it in the radio.
Question:	Is it legal to talk(recreational use) from the beach or from lakeside to a ship underway on the water
Answer:	Recent FCC change makes it legal to talk from shore to a boat on the water. Must restrict oneself to marine related traffic.Effective January 2017, the use of portable VHF radio ashore is allowed, “so long as it is limited to enhancing the usefulness of marine VHF radios without negatively affecting maritime communications.” From BoatUS Magazine, April-May, 2017.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is the speaker volume sufficient for using in motorboat
Answer:	Not at all, unfortunately. I operate a sailing vessel, and I have to hold the device to my ear to hear the broadcast. You can hook it up to a bluetooth speaker, however. This should solve that.
Question:	What function does the Bluetooth? Does it connect with my iPad for gps
Answer:	Once paired with your cellphone's Bluetooth you can use the radio to "ring" for incoming calls and as a microphone and speaker for answering cellphone calls received through your cellphone. You still need to use your cellphone to dial a number of an outgoing call, although you might use "redial" or "voice dialing", if enabled on your phone, and other "voice" features of your particular phone. Also, if your cell phone is out of range of cell coverage, it obviously won't work. The radio can be set to require you to press "talk" to open the "mike" when you want to speak, or set to VOX, to do it automatically while you're speaking. ref: manual linked from Cobra website.
Question:	Can a bluetooth headset be connected
Answer:	Yes, it is Bluetooth capable, and youll need it. The speaker volume is incredibly low. I cant even hear it on my sailboat. Forget about hearing anything on a powerboat.
Question:	What is the Bluetooth function in this unit? For the gps or audio
Answer:	The Bluetooth is to allow you to control your phone with the handheld. For example, if someone calls, you will hear the phone ringing through the handheld and you can answer the call with your handheld. You can also use voice commands to make calls, check the weather, etc.

STRIKER 4

3.5-inch CHIRP Fishfinder with GPS.

Navigate Easily with Waypoint Map

Since the STRIKER fishfinder series includes high-sensitivity GPS, you can see your position in relation to waypoints you have marked. Use the waypoint map to easily view, mark and navigate to locations such as brush piles, stumps and docks. It’s also a great tool for finding your way back to the boat ramp.

Check Your Speed on Screen

You can quickly and easily see your boat’s speed on the screen of your STRIKER fishfinder. It’s a great tool to make sure you are trolling at the right speed for the lure you’re using and for a particular fish species. It’s also a good way to tell if you are going the right speed in wake-controlled areas.

Take Your Fishfinder Anywhere

A portable kit is available to protect and carry your STRIKER fishfinder with GPS, so it’s perfect for kayak, canoe or ice fishing. It includes a sealed, rechargeable battery with charger, built-in transducer cable management and storage and suction cup transducer mount and float.

Experience the Clarity of CHIRP

STRIKER 4 fishfinder includes a Garmin CHIRP (77/200 kHz) transducer, which provides a visibly higher level of clarity and detail for fish and structure than traditional 77/200 kHz transducers.

Instead of sending just 1 single frequency, CHIRP sends a continuous sweep of frequencies, ranging from low to high, then interprets them individually upon their return. Since the frequencies provide a wider range of information, CHIRP sonar technology can create crisper fish arches with greater target separation.

You also can upgrade to high-performance Garmin CHIRP technology, which provides crystal-clear sonar images with even more remarkable target separation and resolution from shallow to deeper depths. For better fishing, bottom contours are more visible, even at higher speeds, and signal noise can be suppressed at greater depths to provide a more timely interpretation of what’s below.

User questions & answers

Question:	Este gps mide áreas
Answer:	Yes
Question:	Does the 73 have tide forecast
Answer:	Not that I could see.
Question:	I'm wondering why there are no reviews for this item...anywhere. It looks to be a good quality product, but I'm a bit concerned at the lack of a map
Answer:	The 73 is a replacement for my much-loved Garmin 72H, which finally started to give up the ghost (display pixels failing) after yet another sailboat race to Hawaii. This was Hawaii race number 6 for this particular 72H, this year going doublehanded on an Olson 30. It was a very fast and wet ride (2070 miles in 11 days 5 hours!)User-settable speed filtering is an absolutely essential feature for sailboat racing, and the 72H and 73 are the only handhelds that have it. It's critical to be able damp out speed variations due to GPS scatter, to detect changes in current and other slowly-varying factors that might only show as tenths of a knot. When I first saw the 73 at a boat show last fall, I complained that the screen was smaller than the screen on the 72H. But I think the resolution is improved, so readability does not suffer. The plus side is that battery life is vastly improved. The 73 is extremely user-configurable, so there is a learning curve involved. For example, it took a few minutes just to find a display mode that would show latitude and longitude. But once set up to your preferences, it's a great piece of gear. As you suggest, I wish Garmin would add the speed filtering feature to a higher-end handheld that could also hold a map database.
