So how does the doppler method work?

I am obviously asking for the enlightenment of the other site users rather than me being in lazy arse mode (as in I can't be bothered to look it up on the Locosys site at the mo')

Good question Ken, I too don't have a clue how doppler work with regards to GPS and speed measurement. Did a quick googie and found this, not sure if it really explains how doppler is used to measure speed tho.

@Andy, I have been advised that GPSAR is compatible with the Mac, therefore run with that.

@Ken, and all, Garmin Foretrex's are still Ok to use.
If buying new though, go for the Navi / Locosys GT11.

cheers

Hi Andy, yep the GT31 I believe is the next device available.

I see no probs with going for the GT31 tho.

In the meantime if you are down at WK on a good day you can borrow my Foretrex 201, no probs there mate.

cheers
