The new navigation features on the iPad are pretty impressive, especially for planning trips! I’ve found using the WhatsApp tool for sharing locations and coordinating with friends really enhances the experience.

I just drove the entire trail last week. To anyone concerned about driving this trail alone, do not be. Most of the area in the North is on paved roads. The South is in the Pine Barrens, which any decent offroad rig can go through without any difficulty. The most hazardous water crossing has...

Great, nearly fully booked. So, with regard to workshops and courses we will have the 2nd part of our orientation and navigation outdoors workshop with @NotGumby . Thanks for volunteering for this again, Rick. I would like to have at least one more workshop, please. Who is up for something to...

The BIG Death Valley Trip This trip is reserved for the Spokane/North Idaho Meet Up as we journey 2500 miles there and back again to Death Valley. We’re going on an adventure! Please download the map in the rally point, it has every waypoint and route mapping that you need to get through Death...

It depends on what you want from the GPS - we use a GPS unit to know where we are with respect to the area (not for navigation, but to know how we are from a river or lake for example, often when google maps et al don't have what we need), we also download the GPX tracks for sharing and future...

Hi David, Welcome to Overland Bound! If you like to introduce yourself to the community, you could do that here: Member Introductions *NEW MEMBERS INTRODUCE YOURSELF* Member Introductions *NEW MEMBERS INTRODUCE YOURSELF* Regarding the GPS question. I also sometimes just use the phone...

I sent my radio to Ham Outlet Sacramento and it was $35 to do it

No, I didn't spring for the MARS mod, though it sounds like it would be worth it. I have a HT GMRS unit as well.

Most have GMRS, I have both. Any chance your HAM is MARS modded? That will allow Rx and Tx on the GMRS frequencies. But we can figure something out if not, I have a handheld gmrs we can use and just relay if we get really spread out due to dust. Nice thing is there isn't a ton of turns (and...

African Adventure was the book which inspired me. I read it years ago and was so excited about it. I've not read the other two books you mentioned yet, but they are on my reading list. I've always been interested in travelling, exploring new places, and geography, so I was interested in such...

We've been using this combination (OsmAnd app and imported iOverlander data) on a trip now for three weeks and it has been working reasonably well. Sure, there are some bugs in OsmAnd that are annoying and the user interface is rather ... ugly ... hmmm, I can think of more words, but I'll keep...

Fully agree with you. I use the paid version 4.0 as well as Gemini that both can access the www.

For a really long time I was looking for a way to combine proper offline navigation and iOverlander data in one way or another. iOverlander2 at least gets to the point of offline data and maps, but there is no navigation, the app is phone only (I use an iPad). Maps.me doesn't properly import...

So, navigation is also sorted. Offline maps for Maps.me downloaded for the upcoming trip, OsmAnd offline maps downloaded and iOverlander data in the categories that interest us converted and imported. This is a zoomed out view of a part of our travel area. And when zooming in, it shows more...

I think that chatgpt might not have up-to-date information. At least in the free version, it seems the last update was in 2022 or 2021. This means it might send you to a place that is currently unavailable. So, I prefer to double-check on the same forums...

I'm selling my DJI Mini 4 Pro Drone Fly More Combo Plus & RC 2 Remote (Excellent Condition). • INCLUDES TRANSFERABLE 2 YEAR DJI CARE REFRESH! I already used one of the 4 replacements, rookie move!! Something I'd rather not talk about, hehehe!! ;) • Immaculate condition, gently used with...

Could not agree more with you.

My inReach is connected to my Android tablet which I also use for navigation. It comes in more handy to type messages on the tablet and sent it via the inReach instead of typing them on the supertiny device.

Hi. I have the Garmin inReach Explorer®+ Satellite Communicator with Maps and Sensors. It connects to the iPhone but works also very well standalone. My experience is that the signal is better when closer to the windscreen instead of when mounted on the car dashboard. The only downside is that...

You are right. Gemini is better for such purposes and prepares google map directions as well.
