Hello,
Im looking for a free basic program, that will take my gps signal from a o2 xda orbit & turn it in to a OS grid map reference that i can use whilst walking.
Any help will be appreciated |

Hi mate.
Sure! you need GPS Speed Sentry !
http://www.tchartdev.com/
There is an option to choose OSUK, or co-ordinates etc...
These are shown on top of the screen for your info as your on the go.
Not forgetting, the best thing is, it will also log your walk trip for you too!
I have nothing but praise for this program.
Regards

Just to follow up...
Apologies but its not a freebie program, but you can use it for 10 mins continuous on trial before it will drop the connection, but you can just reconnect again, pretty easy if your walking.
Well worth a go either way!
