    Hey Guys

    Recently bought a Etrex 20, must say its very good.

    I have my eyes on this :Garmin EIRE Discoverer 1:50K FULL

    I also want aerial images if possible..

    Im trying to keep costs to a minimum so hoping some of you techies can suggest a cheap yet good clear reliable way around paying full wack

    Cheers in advance!

    There's not much leeway on prices really ... €169 for the whole country from Garmin. If you don't want / need coverage for the entire country, you can buy BirdsEye Select mapping tiles. Costs €19.99 from Garmin directly for 600 sq. km. Aerial imagery is also available for €25 for the same area. You buy a voucher, and can use the voucher code to download the tiles you need via Basecamp.

    IIRC you can download a small area as a test for free in BaseCamp to see what the quality is like although from memory I don't think it's great.
