Sounds good. Will do so, and your right about the commercial GPS units.  I
DIDN'T TAKE THAT IN TO CONSIDERATION.
Take care.

Hello James
When you are on an off-ramp or on a street that curves a lot the system can
sometimes get confused and will recalculate.  I have even seen commercial
GPS units do the same thing so we are not alone here.
If you want you can still send the replay to chris@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
