[QUOTE="Colmaca, post: 119282, member: 1543"] The maps carn't stuff a GPS unit they only right data onto a memory that can be formatted with any pc. maps can be reloaded anytime. Shonky maps are made from goverement topo maps and show some very old roads and rivers on them. I use Mapsourse from garmin to view maps load tracks i draw on google earth into my gps from mapsource , you can load shonkymaps onto PC mapsource to view , you only put parts maps onto GPS you use. You can even use these maps on your PC only and just draw tracks that you load onto your GPS basemaps. A happy user of shonky maps for over 5 years on 2 different GPS :) Edit Mapsource free read here , I normally use the 3rd method works for me . on mapsource you can have many maps loaded i have about 4 sets [url]http://www.gpsaustralia.net/forums/showthread.php?t=2800[/url] [/QUOTE]
