actually, you'd only have to hack off the "G" for now, hopefully you'll be upgraded to a new GPS unit before they add another character to the waypoint name.
It took them almost 7 years to get to the 7th character added... the need for the 8th character will be exponentially a few years off.

Just hack off the 'GC'. They're all GC something, right?

Wonder what this will mean to all the people out there using GPSr's that only accept 6 character waypoints. I myself use a Garmin eTrex.

When did they start using 7 characters for waypoint id's? Saw this while looking at the listing for tonight's event.
