Revert back to MapSource ???

Former Member over 12 years ago

I use StreetPilot 2720. Yes I know it is an "Old Brick", but I love some of its features that are not on the newer GPS units. And of course I have use MapSource for a number of years.

I have been trying to use BaseCamp for about 18 months now. I now have version 4.2.2. There a some of the BC features I like. And I know that MapSource is no longer supported.

Today I was trying to copy a number of routes and waypoints from one list to a new list so I could plan a trip (that is create a few routes). This is one feature I like. BC crashed each time I use the Ctrl-down arrow to select the third waypoint I wanted to move. .. .. :mad:

Well I went back to MS and planed the routes then saved and imported into BC

My question is How many people who have learned on MapSource have refused to go to BC or have reverted back to MS?

I don't do much route planning and my birdseye subscriptions have lapsed long ago. So I don't have a lot of need for Basecamp. I make my own maps and need to test them frequently as I work. I use Mapsource because it starts and quits instantly. Basecamp is much too slow for me; I don't need a "database" for this kind of work and don't want to wait while it loads. :)
