open Memory Map for starters.
click OVERLAY on the top banner header.
select import.
( note folder where files are stored ) and select folder and file required
Note file type required and highlight that option
So we have Walk.gpx [for example]
select this and bingo it should be present and showing on the screen superinmposed on the map ; from there one can then look at the profile etc.
hope that helps. |

as to your last question. I dont see why not
Personally I have never transferred routes from Mem Map to Satmap.
I have planned plenty of routes on Mem Map though and then printed them out and taken a paper copy[ screen dump] on my walk- along with OS map somewhere in rutsack and Satmap logging walk.
But each individual has different needs from/with the device in question. |

Just save the memory map route to your PC in .gpx format, then import the saved file into the A10 using Satsync. Works a treat.

Thanks for your help the a10 looks a cracking device if the route distance walked is also accurate which im not sure about this will be money well spent .just bought the lancashre 50k area map too so cant wait till it arrives |

Just to stress the very important word in Tony_P1's reply - it's IMPORT. This is the option on SatSync that converts a .GPX file into a .MAP file that the ACTIVE 10 uses. If you just copy the .GPX file - nothing happens - except you have a bit less storage available _________________ Phil |
