Garmin RINO's


I have an ancient GPS that I use in Baja in conjunction with the Baja Almanac. I would find our coordinates in the Almanac and we would go from there. Last trip some of the group had Garmin RINO's, that have a built in radio transmitter, so they could communicate with each other and keep track of other rider's equipped with RINO's too. There are several RINO's on the market ranging from around $200-$600. I'd like to get some advice as to which one to get. Thanks.

I would go with the cheapest as long as it did what I want it to do. It sounds like you just want to add the radio feature to the GPS. Ebay may have them cheaper.
