Waypoint+

[Guest jndery]

I came across this free program and wonder if any of you have used it. Will it woke on a GPS 76?

[Guest GeoForse]

And what program would that be??

 

Is there a link to the site?

Well, anything coming out of the Tucson Amateur Packet Radio guys (TAPR) cant be half bad (they were a MAJOR driving force behind affordable digital communications via ham radio). That being said, the program looks fairly old and out of date, judging by the copywrite, the model GPSr's supported, and the software suported. Still, it IS from TAPR, so I would be interested how it works out.

I also found : GPSU 4.03; gpsdb; amd GARtrip. But don't know anything about them.

If you have a look at the release history the last update was September 2001 (version 1.8.03 changes to E-Trex support). The E-trex apparently has a changed line of thinking when compared to all previous Garmin units. How the 76 compares to the E-Trex (many diferent models of E-trex) thinking internally I'm not sure.

 

Waypoint+ does what it's meant to do reasonably well.

 

Cheers, Kerry.
