I have downloaded some points from a garmin unit and saved it as a text file. I open it this in a excel spreadsheet, clean up the data. I create a table in...

I have plotted, myself, the coordinates you gave and find that the point is on Fiji, approximately 5 miles/8 kilometres north west of Na Visi. This is...
Hello Villisi Just a comment, perhaps I am wrong. I think you are confusing numerical systems. The original coordinates you give as are in hexadecimal: degrees...
The saved layer/table is on *UTM WGS84* (Zone60S), but GPS data are on *Geographic (Long/Lat)* Coordinat, they are diferent at all, although can use to...
Hi All, I have done the conversion into decimal and created points in mapinfo using the projection lat/long. But when I tried to save copy as UTMWGS84, the...
The coordinates of your latest post differ significantly from your earlier post in two respects: 1) you list 16 degrees south in your latest post, instead of...
An addendum to my last post. I've downloaded the tracks from each unit into Mapsource and would like to be able to compare where each unit thinks it is at a...
It is easy to transfer tracks in MapSource (M-S). I do not know how you have saved your information. It should be immediately obvious when looking at two...
I have a nuvi 750 purchased in January 2008 which has worked flawlessly with TourGuide files. However, I have always updated it to the newest firmware as soon...
I am new to this group and mapping but not to GPS. I have been working with GPS since its beginning, actually the Star system before that. Now I am trying to...
The "China street maps" card for the Garmin has a big very consistent error. In six cities in many different parts of China it is consistently off by about...
... Have you contacted the manufacturer of this card ? ... There's no way for this to be a calibration error. GPS units just don't work like that. Either...
Exactly except for the SW differences. My concern about updating is just that in some forums I've heard that some of Garmin's updates have introduced new...
Are you using the correct Datum for the maps - and no sorry I don't know which one they'll have been produced to use, you may well be able to find out from the...
Thanks Simon for a superfast reply. The card is made by Garmin. I sent in a detailed report to Garmin tech support but never got an answer. The Garmin...
