MapSource and eTrex

 

Should I be able to manage my waypoints on my eTrex with MapSource as I can manage my Favorites on the nuvi?

I have not been able to find any info in the eTrex or MapSource documentation to indicate that this is possible.

Garmin does sell a program to do this, but I'd rather not buy another program to do what MapSource should be able to do.

.

Which eTrex?

I'm pretty sure that they are all compatible with MapSource. The regular eTrex B&W is and the Venture Cx, Legend Cx and Vista Cx are.

Which eTrex

I have the original plain yellow (non-WAAS) eTrex. I got it in 1999 or 2000 for hiking and flying.

Got it Working

The trick was to change the eTrex' interface from NMEA to Garmin.
