Thanks for the info. That'll save me from trying this in the future since that would NOT work in this case since I was in a boat running a river and swamp.
Thanks again!

Well, it can be done with MOAGU, but it's a hack that has limitations. That's what was used in the tutorial and I believe the author has uploaded some of his raster imagery here that will work on the 60csx. See: http://moagu.com/

Wow - I just saw this. It is actually just what the OP wants - made-to-order topo maps.

For those who don't want to deal with learning the software, taking the time required to create USGS topographic maps for your Garmin, or figuring out how to install the maps in MapSource or BaseCamp for upload to your Garmin GPS, you now have the option of ordering USGS 1:24K topo maps in Moagu or BMap2MP Garmin-compatible formats directly from me. Maps will be delivered as a Windows executable that installs them automatically in MapSource and BaseCamp.

There is also Mapwel which takes a different approach by vectorizing images: http://mapwel.eu/autovector/hw_autovector.html

Actually no.  I have SE USA loaded in my 60 now (from this site, of course...thank you, it's great), but the DOQQ's, which have nothing to do with topo, were needed in rush. I've worked around their need for the time being.

Thanks for the help and the replies!

Thank you very much.

Yeah...that's kinda what led me to ask for someone to do it for me :shamesmiley:

Answer me this, what is more intimidating; reading through that tutorial or actually doing it? I keep getting glasseyed when I read it...

P.S. I'm not getting an OR so that's out.

I have some DOQQ's in .jp2 format with world files and want these images to display on my 60Csx...
Is this a possibility and if so what is it going to take to convince someone to do this for me? The total is 4 images and they cover the area of 1 USGS 1:2400 topo map....please?
