66st: Map is greyed out at high zoom in certain regions

Unread post by hgabert »

Hello,

The general world map of the 66st is greyed out at high zooms for certain regions of the world, e.g., the British Virgin Islands are greyed out. 12 mi zoom OK, 8 mile zoom and below not OK.

Can anybody verify? Thanks!

Can you please post a screenshot or two? (Setup > Display > Screen Capture > On)

Unable to duplicate at this time with only Basemap enabled.

No, on the GPSMAP 66 itself.

Copy the image from the Garmin/scrn directory on the GPSr (has to be connected via USB).

Learned something new. Thank you.

And I have the image. But where do I store it so that it is accessible to you?
