This is my first effort, using a borrowed eTrex. I have my first track on the gps, and have bought a RS232 to USB interface as my laptop doesn't have a serial port. My OS is Linux.
I have set the interface to NMEA OUT - I think someone told me this was best, but I can't find where I read it. Now what? How do I get the info from the Garmin onto my laptop? Do I need a specific software package for the download? If I install GPSbabel does that do the job? Sorry for so many questions, but getting started is always the hard bit :-) Anne
