It is under tracks on the Etrek H. Select tracks. Then SETUP (under tracks) . Second menu option is RECORD INTERVAL. Options are DISTANCE|TIME|AUTO. As others have said, the etrek H is serial only: no USB. And the etrek H is the most suitable Garmin model for mapping. You need to explore the menus a bit more. Often things are down several levels in the menus. ael _______________________________________________ newbies mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/newbies
