5.0 out of 5 stars Works great, economical price, January 7, 2005
I do a lot of hiking in state parks where I create detailed trail maps for the hiking guidebooks I write. I use a Garmin GPSMap 60CS, but I don't like to always have to hold the receiver out in front of me as I hike. By using this antenna, I can keep the GPS in a hip holster and mount the antenna inside my hat. It's fairly unobtrusive, but a little dorky if you look at me closely. In the past, I have always used the Garmin external antenna. It works great but is expensive. I needed a new antenna, so I decided to buy this one from Gilsson because it had received many good reviews on the GPS newsgroup and was very inexpensive. It has met all my expectations. It seems to have a little better sensitivity than the built-in antenna, but the real benefit is that it allows you to put the GPS wherever you want (like inside an automobile or on your belt) without losing sensitivity. As long as the antenna has a clear view of the sky you're fine. It doesn't come with any extras (mine didn't even have an instruction manual!) but it's not hard to figure out. Just snap the MCX connector into the connector on the back of your GPS (you need a model with an external antenna input) and that's all. The housing is much smaller than the Garmin, nicely made. Good cable, adequately strain-relieved where it feeds into the housing. I always route the cable through the metal D-ring that attaches the battery housing on the back of the 60CS, better protecting the fragile MCX connector. There are two magnets in the housing under a piece of tape. These allow you to mount the antenna to a magnetic surface such as an automobile roof. You can peel back the tape and remove them to reduce weight and avoid damaging magnetic media such as disk drives. It also comes with two flat-head screws you can use for permanent mounting. You can't beat this antenna for the price.

5.0 out of 5 stars A must for the Garmin 2620, March 30, 2005
I have a Garmin 2620 and the internal antenna just doesn't cut it when using the unit in a car. I lost the satellite signal constantly. I began shopping for an antenna and found that Garmin's is $99 bucks (gulp!). When I found this antenna for $22, I went straight to the order page as fast as I could. The antenna is perfect. It has a nice magnetic mount, it is very small and I have not lost reception yet. The signal is strong and constant and makes using my 2620 so much better. The only drawback (and it isn't really) is that the mid-sized cord (9 feet I think) is not quite long enough to mount the antenna on the trunk if you have a fairly large car. I had to mount my antenna to the dash - which was no problem because it is so small. No one would notice it up there tucked in the corner unless I told them it was there.

5.0 out of 5 stars 2610 in a H2, January 9, 2007
By Paul F (Acworth. GA USA) - See all my reviews
I had trouble with my 2610 getting good reception on the dash of my H2 Hummer due to the angle of the windshield. It seemed that every time I had to make a crucial turn, I got the "lost satellite" message, especially where there were overhanging trees. The Garmin antenna is $99 and I wasn't sure if it do that much but for $20, I figured "What the heck".
Well ... It's like having a different animal. Country roads with lots of trees and in the city with tall buildings my 2610 never misses a beat and the sensitivity is +- 8 feet.
I mounted it on the roof and the magnet base keeps it put even through the car wash. I ran the thin wire along the door frame and under the weather-stripping into the cabin. You can't even see it. I'm very happy with my purchase and highly recommend it to anyone that has the lost signal problem.
