Hi I am a old timer but not new to pc`s so I wont call myself a Newbie,
I have a Streetpilot 111 great machine running City Navigator europe v6.
I have put the speed cameras locations into it with the smart little prog Garmin gpx converter Thanks.Now does anybody know if it is possible to get it to show a camera icon,also is it possible to get it to warn me??.or anything else that I can get it to do.
On reading in the Forums,I see there are quite a number of very inteligent folk, :o Now lets see what you can come up with.dont all rush Laughing Out Loud

take you time.I know this is my first post,and sometimes I find that it is ignored So I hope in this forum that it not so.
Thanking you all inanticipation.

Cheers Korky ( not the CAT) :D

I guess, like me, no-one has the foggiest. If it wasn't the case you'd have had a response of some sort by now. Wink

Hi and

Sorry that no one replied straight away!

The SPIII won't do proximity alerts or custom icons like the newer units and there is a limit of 500 waypoints (if I recall correctly) so you can't load all the cameras.

However, one of the users here has created an overlay map that you can upload using Mapsource (you have to reload all your City Navigator maps at the same time) and it shows the cameras as red dots (I think the icons are Marine navaid beacons). Unfortunately there is no proximity alert feature that will work with the overlay or waypoints.

Download the overlay from http://myweb.tiscali.co.uk/walterwright/

The discussion thread is here.

Good luck! Thumbs Up

Hi Skippy

Thank you for your info,I was beginning to think these forums are all alike but now I know different.
It looks like I shall have to be satisfied with just looking at the small icon of a tiny camera Laughing

actually I did put all the cameras in but it was impossible to see the map Laughing Out Loud

so I just deleted them one by one so as they just covered the north west.stat nav cost me £550 so at the moment I have no intention of replacing it.I have just recieved the update map v8 from Garmin they about £80 approx for the update aaagh,I only use the england map,so I dont think I will bother just yet.

Thanks again
