HELP WITH GARMIN GPS 40 FROM 1994.

[historyncoins1]

Hey I bought a Garmin GPS 40 at a pawn shop to use for treasure hunting and bottle diggin etc. I needed a cheap GPS because I am on a budget and I dont want to bang up my phone. Anyone know how to use this device or similar device? I know this product is from 1994/95 so im wondering how to setup/use and if it needs to be updated and how. I dont even know if the device is useful or obsolete. Please let me know if you have information pertaining to this GPS device thanks.

Did they have a instruction manual with it ?

Just Google "Garmin GPS 40 manual" and you will see a link to a pdf download.

I used to have one years ago. Very basic, and don't leave it out in the sun. I doubt it's upgradeable. Probably still compatible with today's systems, but not sure.
