Figured out you gotta created a bookmark via notes function to get TOPO to work the same as b/4. ( must do for every map )

Can't find a list of enhancements & fixes so I'm not sure upgrade will be worth the pain for some people Question

Upgrade looks interesting but now I get a map of the midwest each time I launch TOPO for AZ which is a pain Mad

Any ideas on a fix for this Question

Ver 3.3.0 of NG TOPO! is available on their website. Rather than double-post all the details I'll just refer you to my post on the subject on HAZ under Gear & Food->GPS Software.

One option is to move the cursor to the United States overview map (in the upper right corner) and move the selection window to Arizona.

Another option: You can also run the "old version+ 1" of TOPO. The old version was 2.7.5. When you install ver 3.3.0, it also installs version 2.7.6, called topo2.exe. It's in the same directory as topo.exe.

Garmin came out with a new GPS called Gecko, any one have one yet and where can you get one in the Phx. metro area. I have a etrex basic and just wanted to check out the new model.
