Lost Surface Roads on 66 st?

Unread post by oldcrashtestdummy »

New member here, but this seems to be the most active GPS forum that I can find. I have a GPSMAP 66 st that is a couple of weeks old. I'm still trying to figure it out. My map display (preloaded 100K)(USA) is no longer showing the surface roads, only major highways. Have I turned something off that is causing this?

Welcome to GPSrChive!

A few questions:

1. What firmware version is installed on your GPSMAP 66st? [Setup > About]
2. What detail level do you have the Map page set to? [Setup > Maps > Advanced Setup > Detail]
3. What is the Map Page scale displayed when the surface streets are not visible?
4. Do you have any additional maps installed on your GPSMAP 66st?
5. If 4 = Yes, which maps and are they enabled/disabled?

This helped me figure it out. I had the Configure Maps set to Worldwide DEM Basemap. Changing it to Topo US & Canada brought back the surface roads. Thanks for the help.
