Question to the gang, is there such a thing as a hand held combination GPS and two way radio, I need them both!

Thanks in advance, see you in November

Our moose gang all have the Rino 120 and it works great if we aren't too far apart and depending upon terrain. Across lakes we find 1.5-2.0 km and in the bush about 1 km. It works great for knowing where everyone is at those distances. We do find the hand held radios alone work better for further distances and are clearer than the Rino. But I wouldn't give up my Rino for nothing.
I'd like to know if anyone has used the Rino on the GMRS stations as we don't all have that option.

I have been using the Garmin 120 now for about 5 years, best investment I made. Great in the boat or in the bush. With the different maps that can be purchased you would be hard pressed to find something better other then a newer Rino in the 130 model or the 500 series.

That is funny since we find that the Rinos out perform the handheld radios unless the are Ham Radios of higher frequencies.
