Caravan Club aand GPS poi Forums

I have just read Decembers Caravan Club magazine and see that they are offering Garmin GPS sets with CLs and Club site positions in OR if you already have a garmin set then you can purchase the CD to download them for the grand sum of £65 yes i did say SIXTYFIVE POUNDS.
Very handy yes but sorry not at that price for me, what does everybody else think of that price for a CD ?

Insanity, when the data is available online. It might not be the latest 2005 data, but given the 95% solution for free.

What GPS do you want the data imported into?

I saw the CC CDs at the pocketgps event at Basingstoke earlier today. The chap was in denial that I should ever want other POIs if I had a motorhome. Salesmen, eh?

Hi

try here for free CC POIs

funnymunny,

I don't see how your Garmin constrains you from adding POIs. Are you aware of this:

Thanks for the information I shall look into it a bit more, at first sight it looks a bit daunting for my brain but im sure if you already have the knowledge then its simple like everything else in life
Many thanks

Hello Dave

The poi Loader is not compatable with the Garmin 2620
Something to do with waypoints & not poi's i think Embarassed

Frank,

Yes, the following infers this feature arrived in the 2700 series that immediately followed the 2620:

Why do you require the CD???????

Both CC and C&CC give members a free book with the site directions and OS coordinates in

So all you have to do is enter thse coordinates ito the m/c and hey Presto it will both find the position you are looking for and direct you to it.

Or perhaps that is too simple and they dont work that way

My navigatioin system relys on a paper map and that is the way to use them
