Brea, California, August 21, 2008 -- Once again the creators at GiSTEQ have focused on making a product that helps not only the experienced adventurers, but the novices as well. This new product can be found on their website: http://www.gisteq.com/Explorer.php.
The GiSTEQ Explorer is designed to be everything the avid adventurers will ever need in electronics. The GiSTEQ explorer has four main functions. Its first is to allow for live communication within a group while it is connected to the FRM/GMRS 2-way radios, and the PTT speaker microphone enables hands free from the radio when talking in the group. It also functions as a GPS tracker and has waypoint navigation as well. It has many different functions, all in one rugged and lightweight unit, making it a very versatile piece of equipment for any outdoor lover to take with them.
"We wanted to create a unit that would come in extremely handy for those people who love the outdoors. Like our popular PhotoTrackr, this unit is lightweight and easy to use, but is built to withstand the adventures of your average hiker or outdoorsman. It's the perfect tool for your adventure quest." Says Eric Liu, president of GiSTEQ Corp.
The GiSTEQ Explorer is a unique device that has many functions that even the casual hiker or hunter would find appealing, including the built-in compass, the easy-to-read thermometer, and the bright LCD display, which makes it easy to see and use even in low light conditions. Aside from keeping in touch with the hiking or hunting team, GiSTEQ Explorer can also be used as a GPS data logger, allowing trip recording and waypoint tagging, making it easier to navigate the way through the wilderness no matter how far any adventurers may roam.
When connecting the GiSTEQ Explorer to an FRM/GMRS 2-way radio, it becomes a very useful tool for people who are walking along in a group. Group members can easily send real time locations, text message, or waypoints to each other, allowing everyone to know exactly where everybody is at all times, ensuring that no one gets lost. It is also good to note that the live communication feature on the GiSTEQ Explorer does not depend on cellular coverage, allowing anyone to use it even if the cell coverage is spotty.
GiSTEQ has high hopes for this versatile unit, which is destined to change the way groups of hikers travel, making it easier for everyone to stay in touch.
