Hi all,

just out of interest, whose maps does Sendero use, particularly for Australia? There are a few vendors doing maps of Australia and some are definitely better than others, so just trying to ascertain the quality of the maps that Sendero uses so I can get an idea of what I am willing to pay when CF comes to the party.

Cheers,
Brett.

I have four maps loaded.

It happens when walking and a new POI or junction is about to be displayed.

It could be a momentary loss of fix but if this is the case it recovers very
quickly. It could also be due to satalite single bounce as it happens in
built up areas - I haven't had a chance to test in a more rural setting yet.

Hi,
does this happen when entering the program, when you lose your fix
then get it back?
how many maps are you loading at one time?

Hi list

I have recently upgraded to the Holux M1000 and have noticed a few things.

Firstly the accuracy is generally much better I usually seem to get eight
satalites instead of six. The positioning of user POIs is much more
accurate.

One thing I have noticed that I did not notice before switches is that
quite often the braille display on my nPower starts to show the searching
sequence - that is the number 1 often appears for a few seconds before the
position is shown. Is this normal?
