Thoughts on personal GPS's that I may buy online and take over w/me? Are the Rino's w/radios causing problems over there? Thx.

Buy the GMAP Garmin Iraq Map (http://www.gmap.com.mx/ir/) and a garmin brand GPS. Make sure the model holds at least 12 MB of memory and 1,000 waypoints. This combination saved my butt numerous times.

Garmin rinos are OK; you need to turn the radio off. I would not advise using GMRS/FRS radios unless under extreme curcumstances.
