Introduction
Thank you very much for choosing to purchase and use an X900+ or X91+ GPS receiver!
With a ground-breaking price, outstanding performance, field ready carry case and easy-to-use features, we know that a CHC GPS
receiver will be a valuable tool that quickly pays for itself.
The X900+ and X91+ receivers are nearly identical. The only differences are the external case style and the internal GNSS Engine.
