    GPS map problem

    A while back I took the micro SD card with map out of my Garmin 62s, made a copy and sent to a friend for his GPS.
    Went to use my GPS and map won’t load. I sent the original

    On the file is a Notebook document named ID with the following
    29259927-c784-47a7-ba8a-3765581e24a6


    Any ideas how to change the code to make it work?

    Make sure on the card the folder is called 'garmin' from memory that lets the unit find it

    Mr Purple has put in a ton of work in producing the topomaps he makes. The "latest and greatest" version is here: https://trademe.co.nz/1278049440. Older versions are available online, but there's a lot of faffing about downloading and installing various things to make it happen. The newer version is available to buy on Trademe. Note that the auction is for the microSD card, which he will install the maps on for "free", because the software he and I use for making Garmin compatible maps prohibits commerical use. Pay a premium for the card, get the map "free".

    Mr purple sells on trademe, or you can contact him directly. mrpurplenz@gmail.com

    He also has a website under construction - not sure if the online purchasing is working yet.

    Either way, it's $65. Includes DOC boundaries and hunting areas. Take a look at his website for screenshots.
