T,

Way way back in 1988 I was an engineering beta tester for this.

The very first handheld GPS reciever in the world. The Magellen NAV 1000.

retro-gps.info

$3000.00

Waterproof, floats and runs on 6 AA cells.

Took eight minutes to lock up after gathering ephemeris data from GPS sats after a cold start.

We have come a long, long ways!

Eric

I have three of them and they all still work.
