- Why not store it in what the 2G came in????

Maybe a hand-made pouch made from aluminum foil :-) On 5/27/07, Fourfeld@xxxxxxx <Fourfeld@xxxxxxx> wrote:I just picked up a 2 GB card for my 60 CSx and I've got a few questions. My plan is to load as much of the U.S. as possible from Mapsource onto the2 GB card and leave it in the GPSr. I'll keep the 64 MB card that came with the GPSr as a backup. For example, I might put TOPO for a specific area onthe 64 MB card. Once I'm out in the field, can I swap cards on the run without loosing my other stored info such as waypoints, routes, tracks, information stored in the calendar, etc.? Also, when I store the 64 MB card, do I need to take any precautions tokeep it from degrading? I was planning on wrapping it in tissue to keep itsafe from static, put the tissue in a small ziplock to protect it from humidity, and then keep it at room temperature. Is this good, bad, overkill, insufficient....? What's the best way to store a memory card? Hope you're all having a great holiday weekend and finding lots of caches. I'm power washing and re-sealing my siding and decks. Anybody want to trade places? Thanks in advance for the help. I'll check back later. My deck is calling me.
