Liam,
I may have misunderstood your problem. You should be able to create a POI
at any location that you have satellites detected in GPS mode and any
virtual position. You can only create a waypoint when you are in route
mode.
Please contact me if you have any questions.

I've not noticed any delays when entering a poi with the pk and blue
logger. I may be misunderstanding things but I can only enter a poi
when I am recording a new route. So you have to open the new route
before you can enter the new poi. This is a pain as often I just want
to add a poi when wandering around.
The only problem I've had is that occasionally the pk will loose contact
with the blue logger and you have to remove the pairing and then go
through the 'look for blue tooth devices' routine again.
On my wish list would be a speaker to be supplied as the speaker volume
on the PK is insufficient or maybe misplaced when outdoors. Obviously,
a way of entering pois without being in a route. A read out in degrees
rather than just clock face mode. So if its being used to steer a boat
then some way of saying five degrees left. When you hit H it will give
you the current bearing but it doesn't give a course correction to the
next way point in degrees. Its only a little thing I know but I have
used this extensively in areas without maps and it would be useful there
to.

Hi list,
Gavin I get this when I try and enter a new piano tuning customer but in
the morning I will acquire my new braille note pk
I understand the pk is much faster with the gps.
I have a purchaser for my braille note and if they get as much out of it
that I have done then that's grate.
I think the sendero gps is the best.
I also use wayfinder but the braille output is so very good.
for us piano tuners the gps has changed our lives correct Gavin.
just wondering if the pk gps only works with the logger receiver and I
wonder in the future if this will be improved to other receivers.
Gavin it will be interesting to how you find the earthmate in the uk.
