Thanks Sussamp, pretty much as of suspected as various trials weren't yielding much success. I know the proximity alerts previously worked with my Etrex.

I've been using Basecamp and various Gps's for quite a while now but would like some info on the following queries. In Basecamp I can specify a "Proximity" value on a waypoint (Denoted by a red ring - see attached jpg) - I assume the theory is if, for instance, I set a value of 1mile diame...

Just done on mine, map already unlocked on installation. Thanks for this ingenious solution!

Thanks for the replies. Yes I'd tried disabling the CN standard maps - no difference. Seems to be as Sussamb suggested - third party maps just throw wobbles! From now on I'll stick to the standard maps when routing through anywhere new and use topo maps when just bimbling about! Every day's a school...

Thanks for the reply and the info. Yes I have to agree that the Montana can be a bit frustrating on road! As an additional question then do you find the screen area on the xt, with the banners, is more than on the Montana? Someone did post on a forum a programming "hack" to make the banner...

I'm currently using a Montana 680 but I like the size of the xt screen. Is it possible to have a "clean" map screen on the xt (when not navigating) I.e. with no banners? One of the many advantages of the Montana is the ability to have numerous profiles with as much or little (or no ) infor...
