I know its a bit off topic but...anyone know if it is possible to track a stolen GPS? If so, how is it done, and what information do I need to do it. Thanks

No, unless its more than just a GPS. What kind? Most have no provisions for being tracked.

And buckle up..I think this thread is about to be lounge launched.

:wink:

If the GPS is just a receiver
"Not like a Rhino that transmits"
then you can not track it.

Any normal radio receiver can
be tracked but how many are being
used at the same time?

Update it with a Garmin 76 or 76Map. You won't be dissappointed.
