    Subject: loooking for : PDA GPS info
    --> Yak-List message posted by: "Genzlinger, Reade" <ReadeG@Cairnwood.com> Ira: I have used the Anywhere Map software since they introduced it. Works well with Ipaq and Dell Axim. I would say the Ipaq screen is a little nicer in all lighting situations. Anywhere has a number of add-on databases - roads, water, airport diagrams, nukes and stadiums, etc. You can add as many as you want. $100.00 per year subscription gets you all software and 28 day airspace updates. I use the Holux CF card gps which came with remote antenna (http://www.semsons.com/comflasgpsre.html). I've found that the GPS tracks just fine strapped to my kneeboard without the external antenna, however, the deck between the cockpits in the Yak is ideal for the remote antenna. The Semsons site has a number of CF GPS units - I think I would opt for one that pivots - these were not available when I bought mine. How about some formation practice this weekend?

    Subject: loooking for : PDA GPS info
    --> Yak-List message posted by: "Roger Doc Kemp" <viperdoc@mindspring.com> I have a IPAQ 5500 that I run the Anywhere map on. It is couple to a Tracker blue GPS reciever. When it works, it is great. I can hardly ever get it to release the com port #8 (the port it communicates with the tracker blue gps on). Yes, I have gone in an turned off the ms active sync, closed the program, had it search for the gps, reset the gps settings...ect. The pocket plates with the moving map is great for SA on approches....when the @#$@!'d gps will link with blue tooth. Otherwise you are condemed to putting a cigarette lighter in you YAK to run the gps by cable. Also means alot of extra wires running in your cockpit. If I had it to do again and the Garmin 296 were avialable when I went with this system...Hands down, would have gotten a 296. It has everything the Anywhere map has and works when called up. The IPAQ works in bright light situations, but not well. I have a Garmin 295 mounted on a RAM mount with the optional mounting strap attaching it to the cooling vent tube. It sits between my legs, angle slightly up, and is sheilded well enough from the sun that it can be read at just about any pitch attitude and sunlight setting. Like I said if I had it to do over and the 296 were avialable at the time, I would have chosen it first. The price is about the same. You can go to Garmin/Jeppson as needed for online updates and you do not have to purchase an annual subscription like you do for Anywhere Map updates.

    Subject: loooking for : PDA GPS info
    --> Yak-List message posted by: "Jorgen Nielsen" <jorgen.nielsen@mweb.co.za> I agree with Doc - working in IT means I have had just about enough with computer type devices, and for the sake of reliability etc. would also go with Garmin. I have owned several PDA's over the years (all top of the range at the time), and ALL of them have let me down somewhere along the line. Off subject perhaps but I have now given up totally on PDAs and use my cellphone synched with outlook to have my diary & contacts available at all times. The other wizardry I can live without. I have the 196 for the Yak52 & my car, and 296 in the L-29, this I chose together with a nav/com combo over a 430. This way if one of them breaks, I have the other. And I do take it home to upload waypoints, update software, download tracks etc. from time to time. Funny enough one of the nicest features I appreciate with the 296 (not documented in marketing info) is that using aux power, it will turn itself on just like a panel mount when turning on ships power, AND charge the internal battery, and turn itself off again (with an option to keep it powered up) when turning off ship power. Voila, instant no-brainer electrical system redundancy, no hassle, no wires, no clutter, etc. In the Yak I took off the cradle from the yoke mount, fashioned a bracket from thin steel, rubber mounted it with silicon tube over the bolts and rubber grommets, just below the clock between my knees. Use the cradle with the locking tab that comes with the yoke mount and chuck the others away (or use in car), the other ones are not robust enough. This arrangement takes +7 -5g, snaps etc., and will not come loose, but is isolated from vibration.

    --> Yak-List message posted by: Roger Bieberdorf <rogerbyak@yahoo.com> Possibly because I am not familiar with a Yak 52; I do not understand how you fasten a Garmin 296 to a "stick" type of aircraft. I have a Garmin 296 that I use in my Cessna 182; but do not move it to my CJ-6 for lack of knowing how to mount it in the CJ and not block some other instruments that I consider important. If you have some pics, I would be interested. I too went thru the Anywhere + Ipaq and find the Garmin 296 to be superior in all aspects. rb Jorgen Nielsen <jorgen.nielsen@mweb.co.za> wrote:--> Yak-List message posted by: "Jorgen Nielsen" I agree with Doc - working in IT means I have had just about enough with computer type devices, and for the sake of reliability etc. would also go with Garmin.

    --> Yak-List message posted by: "Jim Shafer" <eyeballs@cox.net> I got some parts from a Ram mount and placed a ball on the top of my airscoop. Articulating arms attach to a ball mount on the back of the 296. You can place the 296 just above the artificial horizon. Easy to see and reach. I will take some photos tomorrow.
