Hi Again,
I am using the Holux gpslim236 receiver. I think the M-1000
could have saved the day for finding the cabin to get my luggage,
but I don't think it could have found a route to the camp. I
think this is a map issue again. However, the roads were
accurate and even the winding road was there. We wound all around
and the GPS was happy as could be. It seemed to be tracking us
and believing that we were on route to that spurious camp site.
With regard to the route I created and then could not reverse
later, I am pretty sure now that the problem lay in the fact that
I was outside the route when I attempted to reverse it. Now I
ask, what could I have done to locate the end of the route where
I needed to start to retrace my path by reversing the route.
Perhaps I could have created the destination to be the location
of the building where I was and had marked when ending the route
creation process. Then, If I could have gone to that spot, I
wonder if I could have then reversed the route.
I am now more than 125 miles from there and there is no way that
I can get back there in real time to experiment.
Thanks for any input.
I can hardly wait to report the rousing success on this list that
others are having. I know the product is very good, but I seem
to be in the minority of those who are having issues.
