[gps-talkusers] Re: Calculating route over the boundary of two maps

That is correct you need to have all relevant maps in a maps folder.  Now I 
can't remember the exact breakdown of the UK maps but you may need more 
than just North & South, you may have to have East England in there if the 
route goes through that region for example.

Having the other maps in the same directory is not a problem, and I think 
having all UK maps in the same folder should not affect 
anything.  Especially if you have a PK, my gosh, put all your maps in one 
directory, the PK can handle up to 18 maps in the same folder.

Happy Trails.
