Thanks for the quick help.

Thanks for the quick help. I,m sure that I tried that several times before posting, but I guess not. You have solved my problem, thanks again. This is my first Nuvi and I am quite excited about all things it can do. I love my 60CSx and Oregon for geocaching, but they are very slow to catch-up for driving.

Where did you find the wav files? Also, don't you need to re-encode them into MP3 to work on Garmin?

Up at the top of this page

Up at the top of this page is a link called sounds. In there are all kinds of sounds, including Traffic camera and red light camera sounds. I liked Redlight cameras-11 http://www.poi-factory.com/files/Redlight-Cameras11.wav
You can download either a wav or mp3 file. The 1490LMT only works with wav files. Some of the other Nuvis use mp3’s.
