For my Vista HCx, the polygons and icons are visible when I set the map details settings to be high.
Everyone contribute a bit, eventually we can enjoy and benefit more in our navigation. :thumbsup:

The reception for 60CSx still quite good under the heavy jungle shade.
Accuracy is around 4-6m +-, EXCEPT when you move around, then your accuracy will drop to 5-10m +-.
