Is this as good as I can expect? The Garmin guy I talked to said the
stick should work as well but didn't seem to interested that it
didn't work out that way.

Incidentally, from the top of a 12 story building yesterday, it had 6
sats but took over 15 minutes before it found WAAS on one on
the stick. With the remote it had a D on all 6 in a couple minutes
and almost full scale.

This has been my experience with all three Garmin portables I have
owned. The remote, amplified antenna works much better than the "stick"
antenna.
