Advanced surveys The new eTrex series is the first to detect both GPS and GLONASS satellites at the same time. GLONASS is a system developed by the Russian Federation which will be fully operational in 2012. When using GLONASS satellites, the time it takes for the receiver to find a position is (on average) 20 percent less than GPS. Also, when using both GPS and GLONASS satellites, the receiver is capable of receiving signals from 24 more satellites than the GPS system alone.
