cheap gps

[tractor12]

  I have an older magellan hand held gps and use it for mapping tile lines starts ,end of line, and clay tile lines..   is there a better but not real pricey way to use my trk and drive along each line and locate what i want.  and then transfer it to my laptop or evan use my laptop in the trk.  I donot want to spend a lot  but want to know some faily cheap options.   May be later overlay this maps with yieldmaps or or evan soil grid maps   thanks for any info.

You can enter the Lat/Long into Microsoft Streets & Trips and it will plot these on the map.

Go to Magellan.com and see if they have a way to do it. I have a garmin, and for an extra $25 I got the software, and cable to be able to download any information I want from the GPS unit, to a computer. What I will do, is mark my points of interest, and then drive around the entire field to mark the border. That way I have a map I can scale until it will overlay the FSA maps, so I can locate whatever I am looking for. with the gamin software, I can download any waypoint or route, or combination of waypoints or routes I want. Whether or not the maps are comparable with other GPS units, I don't know.
