[Robert & Linda Smith]

Hello Brian,

I'm using the same comm path as I use with GSAK to up load the waypoints 
into any of 3 different GPSr's..  So I don't think that is it.. I have 
not found a place to change "preferences" yet or if I can change the 
long/lat like we can at GC.com....  I'll keep playing with it and see 
what I can find..
