Hello All,

bypass the security dialog box but am having trouble when clicking on the

The message in its entirety is below. 

Thanks,

Subject: [gps-talkusers] tracking our WayFun progress in England

On June 16, 4 of us begin a 5-day walking tour out of Bath England. I will
have a Spot satellite tracking device so those who wish can watch our
progress.

If it is working correctly, Spot sends a tracking every 10 minutes while in
view of satellites. This device sends our GPS position to a satellite which
in turn sends it to a server with maps of the world. 
A sighted person can see the map, the nearby POIs and even a terrain view of
the area using Google maps. For Sendero GPS users, here is how you can
follow along.

Step 1: Go to the following URL. The password is Sendero. You may have to
arrow up, then down, then press Enter for forms mode before entering sendero
in lower case. You will then be asked if you want to go to a secure sight
and just press Enter on Yes.

Note: I have experienced a lock up from time to time when using this URL.
You can practice in the next few weeks as we test the Spot tracking device.
2. The track messages for the past 24 hours will be listed if there are any.
You will hear how many messages and the Pacific time for the most recent
message.

3. In order to hear details, a sighted user single clicks on the message of
interest. Screen Reader users will have to use the Jaws Cursor and then
press left click once. If you have graphics turned on, you will hear a
graphic right before the message. That is what you want to click on.

4. Once you have clicked on the track message, the lat/lon appears. 
Use Chord Y and enter it into your Sendero GPS software.
Note: The lat will always be North. If there is a minus before the
Longitude, you enter W for West afterwards. If there is no minus, enter E
for East after the Longitude.

5. Set that Lat/lon as your Virtual position. If you have POIs for the area,
you will see what the nearest POIs are. If you have UK maps, you will also
be able to here what town we are near.

Note: For the purpose of this vicarious WayFun task, we will make UK maps
available for $59 versus their normal $99 price during the month of June.

You might want to save each of these virtual points so you can then review
our route. In fact you could save each one as a POI and then put them all
into a route with waypoints.

If we have computer access, we will post photos and text from our journey.
If not, we will do that shortly after the trip.

I still haven't heard from any mini groups planning to follow in our
footsteps. Remember there are some good deals for the first to travel. For
details, go to http://www.senderogroup.com/wayfun.htm
