    Your experience is not the norm. I highly suspect you have a lot of avoids or a bad upload of maps that is causing your issues.

    I found this site by accident in 2007 and thought it would be a good thing to allow drivers to post their issues/suggestions/route issues so that they have a more viable means of communications.

    Thanks,,
    Mark

    If you had read the post that this referred to you would understand the meaning of the comment.

    I cannot post about items/things until RM has released it publicly.

    Thanks,
    Mark

    UNLESS you know what you are doing with the computer and are computer savvy do not modify the registry. This done incorrectly will brick your computer in a heartbeat.

    Thanks,

    "As the crow fly's" This is from Point A to Point B in the most direct manner. Hold the map and find two points, draw a straight line. This is the meaning.

    Please go to page 18 and read post 173 in regards to satellites and the use of them in an GPS.

    Thanks,
    Mark

    Thank you for directing me to post #173. So, I used the wrong phrase, but you understood my premise.

    I don't have any 'avoids' that I know of. I cannot recall setting any. That is a feature that I have not used at all. I may have a bad upload of maps and I am trying to correct that. I cannot get to my Dock, so to speak. I am having issues with that.

    REALLY? Mark Kling, can you confirm that this is true? IF it is, I would have to assume that you would have corrected me on that already.

    It does say "If Possible".

    If you are having issues with the Dock I can work with you on that. I would need to remote into your laptop. You can PM me for the details.

    Thanks,
    Mark

    Just a note... since I pretty much watch this thread even on weekends, if you are in need of help please budget the time that you need me to work with you. Nothing worse than sitting waiting to help a driver for a few hours and not hear again from the driver. Just saying.

    Thanks,
    Mark
