Dual GPS
The GPS peforms exactly as described. I have tried it with my PC and iPad. Installation was straight forward. My iPad runs out of power before the Dual GPS does. I have used it with the Navfree app and it provides similar functions to my Garmin. Will be using it with Imray app when sailing.
