Please excuse what may be a simple minded question, but I am new to using my nuvi 350. I want to be able to access the NPR stations list while a route is active. How do I go back and forth between the POI and the route? Do I need to stop and re start the route for example.

I don't think you really
I don't think you really want to visit directly each station, unless you are a salesman involved with that industry! In addition, the actual physical station transmitter/studios may be miles off of the road you are traveling.
We use the NPR list in the following way. When we lose reception on an NPR station, we then open up the NPR POI list on the nuvi, and look for the nearest next station in the direction of our route. The list shows the call numbers and number of the station, and we then set the radio for the clearest signal we can find from the list.

Since the frequency is in the name field of the location, the fact that you are on a route won't come into play. You need only search under your POI files for the NPR file and view the locations -- you don't have to click on any of the actual locations to see the frequencies.
Nuvi 660 -- and not upgrading it or maps until Garmin fixes long-standing bugs/problems, and get maps to where they are much more current, AND corrected on a more timely basis when advised of mistakes.
