Request for those creating POI's broken down by state

While many people would like to only load a limited POI file size on their unit, others (like myself) are lazy and would rather just load the entire US and have coverage wherever I go. I would like to request that if someone is providing POI's in multiple state format that they also provide an additional file where they are all combined. Of course, as is the case with HAM radio, if it is too large then I can understand not joining them.
me too
I agree~
BTW, what is the HAM radio stations? I couldn't figure it out.

HAM Radio
Amateur radio
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Amateur radio station with modern solid-state transceiver featuring LCD display and DSP capabilitiesAmateur radio, often called Ham radio, is a hobby and public service enjoyed by about six million people[1] throughout the world. An amateur radio operator, also known as a ham or radio amateur, uses advanced radio equipment to communicate with other radio amateurs for public service, recreation and self-training.
Amateur radio operators have personal wireless communications with friends, family members, and even complete strangers. They support the community with emergency and disaster communications.

Ham Radio POI Files
For what It's worth. I have created two sub directories for ham radio repeaters on my nuvi 660 sd card. One for all the states east of the Mississippi and one for the western states. This keeps the files at a more managable size. If you would like I could down load these two files to make things a bit easer.

Actually, my interest was in the Lighthouse POI's being created, as I wouldn't be using your repeater files. However, I think the general principal applies and, if it isn't too difficult the additional files would probably be useful.
