geordiegirl Mar 2008 4:07pm, 24 Mar 2008 10 posts	0 geordiegirl Hi all I'm thinking of buying a garmin but confused by the 301 to 305 as they both have HRM's. Is the price difference worth it? I have seen the 301 for £69.95, the 305 for £125. Thanks for any advice

geordiegirl Mar 2008 4:12pm, 25 Mar 2008 11 posts	0 geordiegirl Thanks for the advice guys, the 305 it is then. I have found a 2nd hand one on ebay, is it worth buying 2nd hand or is it better to get a new one which will obviously have full warranty?

Badger Mar 2008 2:40pm, 26 Mar 2008 1,151 posts	0 Badger HOD: you can't make the tiny display that's permanently on any bigger, but you can customise the display pages and show the heart rate the same size as things like time/pace if that's any help? Or am I just pointing out the bleedin' obvious but unhelpful here? Geordiegirl, with the price 305s are now it might be worth stretching for a new one. Mine's been utterly reliable but some folks have had repeated problems...
DIY Diva Mar 2008 2:44pm, 26 Mar 2008 2,762 posts	0 DIY Diva HOD from the main menu, select settings, general then data fields. Select which page you want to change (on mine it is the second 'screen') Then select the number of data fields you want to see: in your case 1 (to get the biggest available display)
DIY Diva Mar 2008 2:47pm, 26 Mar 2008 2,763 posts	0 DIY Diva My problem is that the PC won't recognise the Garmin. Using Hollywoof's gizmo to load data but would like to see the Garmin garbage all the same.
