so if someone can tell me how to log it using tomtom mobile i`ll get it submitted

The quickest way to do that is to press 4-4 when you are at the Gatso location. This will add it as a Favourite (hmm, how sick is that) and you can later go back and find the Lat/Lon data for that. _________________ Lutz

- go to the Favourites list
- tap and hold the one you recorded
- tap "Show on map"
- tap Tools > Goto GPS coordinates
This will show you the coordinates for the speedo. Depending on your settings they may already be in decimal format, or you may have to convert them. _________________ Lutz

as mentioned earlier you can record your current position as a favourite by pressing 4-4 . But then the application does not expose the Lat/Lon of that point, so you would have to take the data from the TomTom settings file. Possible but not trivial. The data is stored in the ,CFG file that's in the map directory. _________________ Lutz
