Hi everyone,
It is nice to be here with people sharing the same interests.
I am a 61 year old newbie. I have just bought a China made GPS system, I am handicapped to know that many of you earthbound brothers have a superior knowledge and hands on experience creating and modifying maps from scratch! I am impressed and awed by some of you, if not, all of you!
I would love to learn the magic secrets, out of sheer personal satisfaction.

bros raoul3650 and hudson
:welcome: to mfm.

Contributions come in many forms. You can start by reporting errors on POIs and routes, or even contribute POIs and tracks. The 255 can do 1-s track logs whom mappers use to update the maps. Please take some time to browse the Library and Newbie Lounge. There are lots of info and tips there.
