hello new user of homeport…. i have a gpsmap5208 and gpsmap6208 on my boat, with g2 vision card.
i have downloaded the maps to sd card and tried to have homeport open them but no dice., the sd card saves a garmin folder
with 2 items inside 1is "garmindevice.xml" and 2 is "gmapbltn.img" this file is 1.82gb so i assume this is the map but when i try to import into homeport it says it is not a gpx file…. wouldn't garmin save the file on the unit in the same file format that homeport likes to use???
what am i doing wrong please help!
