Re: Compass on 396

I see no problem to look at the screen and see where I'm going to. So, if it says W, then I know that North is on right, and South is on left. If it says NW I know that South is not fully behind me to the left, and the North is just a bit to the right... And so on. If you want to see a full round ...

Re: Via points set by rubber band

Thanks for the replies. I understand that the only way to be sure is to check the Route properties before loading to the nav. Basecamp works in mysterious ways lol. Oh, while at it, have you ever got a straight line after importing into the BC? Usually I am correcting it in the Route properties by ...

Via points set by rubber band

When I pull the "rubber band" to reshape the route some points appear as via points. I have to go and set them as "don't alert", but if I forget, I get not needed via points in the nav.
Is there a way to know what point that it is setting when I'm shaping or reshaping the route?

Before I knew about it I used to keep 2 navs on the bike. Looked strange :)

Re: Google map to Basecamp

You can create a route in Google MyMaps in google Drive Not sure how to do that. I created a link in google maps and used a 3rd party software at mapstogpx.com on the net to create a gpx file from it. Basecamp took it, but all shaping points became a Waypoints (Saved or "favorites"). I haven't try ...

Google map to Basecamp

Is there a way to import a route made in Google maps into the Basecamp? I read that Google maps can create a KML file (that can be inserted to Basecamp), but I don't even see how to do that as well. So the question is: can a gpx or kml or any file be created in google maps made route (or google ...
