I use a Garmin 120 on my boat for raptor surveys. It seems to work
well and the location of each sighting is recorded as a waypoint.
I'm currently getting Fagawi software which will allow these waypoints
to be plotted directly onto a map.
If you want more info on GPS systems, try the newsgroup:
sci.geo.satellite-nav
they have a healthy discussion going about the pros & cons of many
different brands and models & also regularly post a FAQ which gives
links to many useful sites.
Hope this is of use
