Every Lowrance/Eagle GPS unitsI have owned show ths. One reason I carry my Expedtion handheld is for the barametric reading it gives, wish my HDS had that feature.

I believe my Humminbird has that feature, also I use my handheld Garmin Etrex vista cx, which has a barometer, and sun and moon times and hunt and fish times, but I just focus on the moon information.

ttrap,

I have a 788c and think it has this, but like I said I'm not sure. Boat will be out of storage in a week or so when I can check for sure. I do know however that my handheld garmin etrex vista cx has that feature which I use a lot and that may be where my confusion is. I will check and get back to you unless someone else can chime in.

Lesson learned? Google before posting. I found this item for PC type phones. Has anyone used this?

On my HDS 8 I hit pages and then scroll all the way to the right and there is a line that says sun/moon and you go to that and it will give you times for current position... I think it would be the same on the 5
