Will my current Garmin 76 be able to use the Galileo system? When will
the current US system no longer be available? Will the Galileo system
operators charge for this new system? Any other questions I should ask?
Thanks. rsvp99(at)gmail.com

No.

Why should it not be available? The two systems are independent of one
another.

Thanks for your reply Alan.

What's the word on whether Galileo will be free to the man in the
street?
