[Talk-gb-westmidlands] Fwd: Recommendations for cheap GPS for data-logging

[Chris Dunne]

Hi,

Its my first time posting and I'm new to this list (I'm in the Leicester area).

I have some contacts who walk a lot of footpaths and was wondering if
it would be worthwhile to give them a cheap GPS data-logger to record
some of these.

I came across this unit from Hong Kong for $26.10

If this was equipped with a battery pack it looks like it might do the
job. Has anyone had any experience of this or similar units?

Thanks

Chris

PS does any form of informal meet exist in the east midlands? Would
anyone be interested in meeting in a pub in Leicester?
