Matt

When trying to unlock the map on basemap it requires a "product key / coupon code"  Where do I find this code?

Thanks

Here is a 4 part video by huntinggps that I watched and then would pause and do it and then watch some more and would pause and do it to download and install the map.  It sounds like you may be able to click on part 3 of the video at the top to skip ahead to where you are in the process.  It helped me out a lot.

I just purchased a garmin 62sc and the HUNTWA chip to go in it.  So far I am happy with it, but now I need to find a compatible topo map for my PC.  Is it possible to have the HUNTWA Map on my PC without downloading it for the a cost?  If not what is another map I can use / download that has topo?

Thanks

Not sure if anyone's said it yet, but I don't really feel like reading anything. I'm kinda exhausted.

It is probably too late but you can purchase the download to PC, instead of buying the SD card - That way you can download it and have it on any PC, and It allows you to be able to place it on to an SD card also, Really its a better deal for the money. That way you can pre-plan on PC then just download your trails/trip onto the SD card and good to go.

When I do this, it works....but as soon as I disconnect my gps or remove my chip everything is gone.  I would love to just open it on the computer and so I can study hunting areas without having my gps attached. 

Maybe I am missing something?? :dunno:

With your GPS still hooked up is it possible to export the file or a screen shot as a TIFF or JPEG? Then you can either print that or view it after you disconnect? Just a thought.

I wanted the chip so I didn't have to worry about downloading specific maps to my gps.  I often will travel great distances in a hunting trip, often without prior planning.  I didn't want the hassle of having to preplan everything and download maps.
