Hi.
No, I think you misunderstand me *smile*. I have a belt pouch in which I store
items I want to carry with me, I simply attach the keychain to the zip of the
main pocket so it dangles on the outside of my pouch and thus is exposed to the
sky if you follow me.

Hi Ibrahim. Are these Is it easy to purchase one of these pouches which hold
the receiver. Another words is it a common accessory or can it only be
purchased from a certain retailer.

Hi Saqib.
The keychain 2000 is a nice enough receiver, though to be honest, if you
have a 51 channel receiver already, the keychain wouldn't benefit you that
much. The problem you have is exposure related in so far as you'd need to find
a way of allowing the gps receiver clear unobstructed access to the sky. If
you could contrive to clip the keychain so its on the outside of your body then
all may be well and it might be a worthwhile purchase. I personally had mine
on a zipper on my belt pouch which I wore over my jacket for easy access. That
way it wasn't obstructed in any way.
All the best, Ibrahim Gucukoglu.

Hi. I'm looking to buy the Freedom Keychain 2000 and I would just like to
know how accurate it is? I currently have the Bluenext 51 channel receiver and
it works quite well when exposed to the sky. I sometimes experience a delay in
updates to my journey when the receiver is in my jacket and I have to take it
out for it to establish a good signal. I thought the Keychain 2000 will take
care of this issue as it's exposed to the sky at all times when walking. Does
anyone know how much the Freedom Keychain 2000 is? and who sells them. Talknav
did sell them but they have moved on to the 66 channel receiver. This wouldn't
be ideal as the receiver would be kept in my pocket and I'd probably be facing
the same problems once the receiver was placed in my pocket. If someone has the
latest and greatest 66 channel receiver then perhaps they would like to give me
some feed back on it.
