GPSr Units / Garmin 450 junk?
October 26, 2011, 05:46:40 PM
I don't think so. I have seen many screen shots and people say it is easy however I am having all kinds of problems.

I have the topo maps and can look a those. I have a base map that only gives major cities and lakes/rivers. It does not have Des Moines Iowa on it and that city has 300,000 people. Only one or the other can be used at a time. So, what am I doing wrong? I am looking at the map in base camp and in Map Source and they have city roads all over the us, it shows Des Moines and other small cities close by. I have selected everything in Map Source and sent it to my GPS Device however... same thing. No towns and streets.

Is the Garmin map software just junk? What am I obviously doing wrong? Please help me out.
