Interesting,  The 705 does indeed have an option to snap to roads, but
I understood it only applied to the map display not the recording, but
maybe it does indeed include the recording, and it would explain why
some things have gone badly off - however I've not changed the setting
between the previous goes and this one.  However I have updated the
firmware, so it's possible either the default or the threshold
changed.

Thanks for the idea!
