Basecamp!?

<< < (2/2)

Brick:
Some of us over here in western NC are using Tyre to make routes in conjunction with BaseCamp. After importing said route into BaseCamp there are still a few things to do with the route then load it into your Garmin. Works pretty well.

Good luck Q, I never used Mapsource and haven't tried Basecamp. I just pop the .GPX file into my Garmin Nuvi (2450 I think) and let it do the best it can with the routes. Most of the MSTA event routes have worked pretty well that way. I have neither the time nor patience to learn one more new and everchanging piece of software. I do enough of that at work (software developer, old legacy system not a Windows package).

program not relating to Garmin equipment. It will start to come to you, with time.
It seems to be a good program but nothing just make sense as you would expect.
Go through some of those tutorials and it will come. I have always found Garmin programs querky!

I haven't had the ahem... "pleasure" of dealing with Basecamp.  If, however, Basecamp is counter-intuitive to Garmin's already counter-intuitive programming, it may just be worth the try!
