    You should submit items like this through your "Tell Rand" app on your gps or dock then send it to RM..

    i doubt these are the types of issues Mark wants to deal with on his own time...

    Not a big issue. I usually verify on the latest POI file and if not there, submit to the person who is in charge of the POI db....

    Thanks,

    I don't connect the GPS to computer very often, unless I know there is an update.

    It really likes just sitting on my Dash, and the connector does thank me for it believe it or not.

    I can't leave my TND 520 sitting in the yard overnight so I unplug it every night and take it with me. Is there some precautions I should be taking with the connector? Is there a pigtail solution available that someones come up with? Mines is not loose or anything yet but I would like to nip it in the bud if this is a problem. Is it an easy replacement if it does get bad?

    Had to break down and see the DR today for some signed for drugs.. Now I can really get better. I will be leaving next Wednesday and coming home Sunday for the MATS show.

    For anyone going to the show, if you are there bring your TND in for an update and if you have issues with your computer playing with the TND, bring your computer in also with the power cord.

    Thanks,

    710 was the one that had that issue. You should be fine. If you do find it is becoming slightly loose, just gently squeeze the flat ends lightly together to create a more firm snug fit.

    Thanks,
    Mark
