I bite the bullet and bought a years worth of registration on Google 
Earth....  It is a very interesting piece of software and fun to play 
with, however,,,,,,,  It will not read my waypoints from my GPS, it's 
more than likely looking for Map Data rather than waypoints..  I can't 
find a way to change my preferences for reading long/lat..  Seems it 
wants to show me only DD MM SS when I want DD MM.MMM like my GPS   Also, 
when I made a search of Anchorage International Airport, Alaska it came 
back with a location downtown???  I can see the aerial photo of the 
airport and can move in on it and see the long/lat that seems to be 
correct, wonder why the search does not hit it better????  Has anyone 
made a search that showed waypoint location via the aerial photos or am 
I asking to much of it??
