Hello,

is there some way to mount it to the straps of the backpack ?
thank you

I just use the standard belt pouch that it comes with. Having seen the "deluxe" carrying pouch, I wouldn't bother with it. I find the standard one fine, with extra pocket to carry spare batteries and additional cards if required. |

The satmap comes with a carry case that can either be mounted on a belt or via a detatchable shoulder strap. I have attached a wrist strap to it for additional security when walking with it out of the pouch. Some people have found ingnenious ways to mount it on the shoulder strap of a rucsack read this topic for more info. Topic |

I brought a Vanguard binocular padded neck strap instead of the crap little strap supplied, just hangs round my neck all day. I hardly notice its there.
I had to use the satmap supplied quick disconnects as they seem to be the only things to fit the mounting holes. |
