My experiences with my new
Magellan GPS Pioneer
So far, I have had a lot of fun measuring the co-ordinates of various
places which I often visit. If anyone else has one, feel free to
use these (for fun only, of course) -- I do Not guarentee the
accuracy of any of these points; I measured them with a machine that
is only (at best) accurate to 50 feet, so BE WARNED. I am using map datum
WGS84 (WG584?) for these co-ordinates.
