Sounds complex, does anyone know exactly how I would configure a Garmin 196 bought in the UK to operate in the Western USA? I will have to read up about this, but if anyone who has experience can help,that would be great!!

The 96C is not an option as by the time you add all the extras on, it is more expensive than a 196. Colour would be great, but is not really an option. I would like a big screen for clarity and certainly can not afford the 296 so a 196 seems best. It would seem that the Pilot 111 is being phased out so that is not an option unless cheap second hand. The 96 b/w looks ok, but the screen does seem small. I may aswell invest in something half decent


Cheers
JAS
