    Yeah, we actually have one in the car, but believe it or not, the Garmen 
model we have doesn't give lattitude and longitude co-ordinates on the 
screen.

I know, that sounds really strange, but we even checked with the 
manufacturer, and the model we have doesn't have screen read-outs of those 
items.

Go figure.

I think you can get that info from a GPS system.  Do you have one or
do you know someone who does?

73,
