- I use Microsoft Street and Trips and have really good luck with it. I use GSAK to import my unfound caches so they show up on the map. GSAK - I have had some trouble with it, I figured out that the port was being used by the PDA and wouldn't let it use it. Turned the PDA off on that port and it has worked fine since then.

What works, what is needed and how you do it. I know that Myotes navigates pretty good with Street atlas, Steve brown generally has more computer power running than the space shuttle, Bernie managed to make it to Canada and back and I cant get anything to work right half the time. I cant get GSAK to talk to the GPS. Some folks quite trying and use mapsource on the laptop for waypoint loading and management. I bet there are a million different setup variations. If I cant get this stuff to work right, I bet there are quite a few folks that haven't a clue as to where to begin. So, What works and what is in y'all "bag of laptop tricks" --------------------- Glenn **************************************** Our WebPage!
