just got the mfm every Monday update as it was released on Monday night as my posting was in the afternoon

can the jcv file from garmin website works side by side with mfm website map data?
jcv will run automatically?

just too used to the usual up to date mfm 100mb++ updates and suddenly garmin website updates are smaller in size as well as backdated :ko:

Nope..

Weekly releases is by ourselves....not Garmin. Won't work with the JCV file generated at Garmin for the MFM NT map.
