TWL: Garmin GPSMAP 176: Metroguide & BlueChart coexisting?

RE

Tue, Jan 7, 2003 7:04 PM

After some previous exchanges on this subject I saw a post
by Robin Goffrier (who I hope will e-mail me directly) about
loading both the MetroGuide and BlueChart into the 176.

I also have a 64m memory chip, and tried that -- but one
appears to override the other.

Wrote to Garmin, got the response that they cannot both be
loaded at the same time.  Big disappointment, since I bought
the larger memory chip for just that capability.

I'm still skeptical that Garmin described this correctly,
and would welcome any thoughts/advice.  Please reply to
estes@american.edu (or cc: me if you reply to TWL).
