Re: Basecamp Startup Error

Any hint as to where the file is that needs to be deleted? I don't see a gpx folder or current.gpx file. Using Windows 10.

I created a directory structure of root/garmin/mp3 And put all my files in that mp3 folder. No joy. I then put the mp3 folder in the root of the sdcard and still no ...

Re: Bluetooth Advice Needed

If I put the MP3s on the phone and start playing them, will I still receive calls and text notifications on the GPS from the phone. Sorry if this is a stupid question, but just getting into this Bluetooth stuff. I'm from the wired generation.

Thanks again.
