Computer expert needed

Dave,

You don't need OziExplorer to download shonkymaps.
You can do this with Internet Explorer, or whatever other Internet access program you use.

I am not a Garmin user, but if you have a card reader attached to your computer, you can save them to an SD card or whatever the Garmin GPS unit uses in it.

OziExplorer is a stand alone map reading software package and is only used to read maps in ozi format.

Mapsource is Garmins map reading software and will only read maps in Garmin format unless converted.

Shonky maps is in Garmin format and needs Mapsource to read it, shonky maps is just a map not a program.

Hence why it only works on Garmin products.

All you have to do is download Shonky maps and open the exe. file and it will load then when you open Mapsource it will appear as a add on in a drop down manual in the top left corner.

You need a licensed version of Mapsource to unlock the Shonky maps if used to navigate.

I already have Shonky map disc so if I download Map source every thing should be sweet?
Cheers Dave
