I think that is quite common and inherent in the Garmin serial connection. I guess that I have to reseat the connector on 1 in 4 attempts. I am so used to it that I just automatically check (usually just push the connector right home - it is *very* stiff) if gpsbabel and friends doesn't see any data. ael _______________________________________________ newbies mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/newbies
