You should be able to use the second unlock code , City Navigator has stopped giving out the second code after version 7.
Or you could have a choice in up dating your other GPSr to the latest version which will be NT 9 when it's released

Hi Julie,

Shonkys maps don't cover New Zealand, or did you mean you downloaded the NZ version and if so you need to Untick Shonkmaps and tick NZ topo maps on

I have noticed in Geocaching mode I have a different coloured map than before.
I never got more than 6 hours of life using 2 x 2700 Ni-MH Sanyo batteries

And I did encounter some electric compass problems before hopefully that has been fixed

Do you need to copy the UBD maps to Map folder in Ozi and is the image path looking t the right map folder

I have the older UBD maps which are in Ozf format, not sure what the newer UBD maps are

Gsak won't work with Ipac

You can use GPX Sonar, Cachemate

I find it best to use HTML exported from Gsak which is on the Home PC

Others might do it differently
