First let me say thank so much for all of the resource materials you have created and posted John.

I can only guesstimate at the hundreds of hours you've invested in this body of work. As a novice ZUMO XT/BaseCamp learner, the reading and learning has been very valuable for me.

A future edit?: On PAGE 11 of the Zumo 590/595 and Basecamp 4.1.1. guide attachment you posted, it seems some of the headings and sentences have dropped ... as if cut off. I don't know if that's unique to me or whether it is an inherent problem for everybody.

Thank you very much again.

Thanks for the comment @sonuvabug - glad to know it is still helping people.

Goodness - I never noticed that missing text before. I know exactly what that is - and It is affecting the whole of the page. It is probably a shape or a large letter. When I am working on the pages, If I haven't finished, or haven't checked it for errors, I put a big red 'X' or some other message over the page before I save it for the day. It looks as though that was set to white by accident. No red mark, I must have checked the page - so I never noticed it ! I'll get that fixed and repost it.

Thank you.

Use Basecamp (mainly), MyRouteApp (sometimes), Competent with Tread for XT2, Can use Explore for XT - but it offers nothing that I want !

You're welcome John. I am literally reading every word.

Question: I downloaded the pdf document and I wanted to print it to put in my binder. It won't print.

Is that by design or something wonky at my end?

Thanks again for all your tremendous work in putting this info together.

That is by design.

I've made the correction, thank you @sonuvabug, and made a few other mods to version 4.3

That is now posted in place of the original one - in Post #1 (but that won't print either).
