That file from Jack was one of the best things I ever downloaded and saved.
I printed it out and have a copy here, at my other house and one in the
pickup.
I learned more about my GPS reading posts by Jack than any other source of
info.
Sounds like someone is sending you a copy, just wanted to confirm what they
said.
