Bump,
What kind of range are you typically seeing with your magnetic antenna hooked up?
Side note:
The radio man that I spoke with last night went into some detail (over my head) regarding physics, attenuation, etc. However, one of the things that I did understand is that the soil content in the area you are hunting has a definite affect on the signal range. If you hunt an area with a high iron ore content, you will get much better range out of your Garmin, than someone with little to no iron ore in the soil. That might explain why some people report better range out of their Garmin systems than others.
