Funny Problem loading POI's I can't figure out.

I have the lastest POI software along with my Garmin 680. Has anyone had this problem? I down loaded -eleven (the 7-eleven poi's) from this site. There is about 77 locations but only 52 load into my Garmin. I get no errors when loading this csv file. After checking which ones got loaded and which didn't, there seems to be a common factor involved here. All Westerly locations that were -88.xxxxxx and above got loaded. All the ones that were -81, -77, -76 did not get loaded. Anyone know why?
Were you looking
Were you looking at your 680 for the POIs ???
If so , you will only see the closest 50 locations.
If you force your GPSr to be near another location -
say Kansas City Kansas - you will see a totally different
list of locations!

Did POI Loader show only 52 got loaded; or do only 52 show? If the latter, seach this site and you'll find only the closest 50 (not 52) POIs display at one time.

Thanks for your help. I didn't know that it only shows the closest 50 locations. I reloaded only that POI to see if it did load the 77 and it did. Thanks again.
