Does anyone know if there are civilian GPS‘s that work off mils and x figure
grid references? All the ones I‘ve seen work off degrees.

I believe that the magellan 2000 XL has a mil function on it, its also relatively cheap,
and works off 12 satellites at once. You have to look at instruction manuals to find out
that sort of thing civilians are not to demanding for a unit to operate in ‘mils‘

I use a Garmin 12 about $230 at WalMart. It will show mils and use the military grid
system. In fact, a Nepalese officer I trained with was so impressed with it, he has
persuaded his government to purchase them for their troops in East Timor.
Cheers,
