Re: Loading NT GPS Card data onto Lowrance units
Just spoke to Michael - he suggests copying the data onto a bigger, blank micro or SD card because the Elite units may not like the small size (128meg) of the original card.

Re: Loading NT GPS Card data onto Lowrance units
Unsure what I have done. My maps on the elite 7 comes up,but when I zoom in the screen is brown and show no coast or water way. All waypoints ans trail are still there. Do I need a new card or is it something simple.
Regards

Wish I could help but unsure on this one - sounds like a job for Michael at IO Marine.

Re: Loading NT GPS Card data onto Lowrance units
Went down to the Vic river last week and why have my waypoints moved 50m either side of my marks?

Re: Loading NT GPS Card data onto Lowrance units
Righto, I've got the card and now my units, Lowrance Hook reveal 9 & HDS live 12. I opened the card in the Hook unit & found many folders, none Lowrance specific.
I've read the posts I could find on here, they appear the be fairly outdated at present.
How do I find the files to transfer the marks in the Lowrance Hook reveal? What are the specific files called?
Any help appreciated.
