I went looking for a hand held GPS at the sort of local Cabella's store, and 
could not find one with grid squares as a feature. I couldn't even find a store 
employee who ever heard of them. The GPS units on display had no batteries as a 
rule. It was very difficult between clueless store people and no batteries. 
Then I had to learn about the menu structure on top of that. The store people 
were pretty slow in that department as well. After almost an hour, I gave up.
    Does anyone have a current GPS unit that does Maidenhead locators?
