[pct-l] GPS and PCT



Good afternoon, Ray,

I use Natl. Geo. TOPO! and I regularly connect a non-mapping Etrex-family
GPS to the map program on the computer.  I up/down waypoints and
trackpoints, but my understanding is the actual TOPO! maps can not be
uploaded.  I'm not the expert on mapping GPSs because I don't really want
one.
