MMC card

[triumphrick]

OK, Guys, I just uploaded my new bestgpsspots card into my Eagle fishelite 500. Got about 260 new spots to go try out. I can zoom out and in and get a rough idea where I am headed, but is there any way to transpose those readings over to a map of some sort to allow me the ability to read it before heading out? I guess what I want is a way to review the sites at home on paper before having to fire up the gps to do it. I imagine an sd card will be used in all this and I am not too familiar with them. Thanks for all your help. Rick

Re: MMC card

If you have a chart with the coordinates marked well on it you can transpose them by hand. A better way would be to get a copy of Lowrance's Map Create.

Each of the spots will have a latitude and longitude. Get out the marine chart and you can put each spot on the chart useing the Latitude and Longitude. If you do not have the actual chart you can downolad the booklet charts and still plot the locations. It a little harder but can be done.
