GPSMAP 60CS + Topo Qn,

I have a 60CS and Mapsource Topo. The question is when loading maps into the
60CS from Topo the new map rep[laces any currently saved map in the device.
Right?
Thanks!

Not necessarily...
You can load City Select, Metroguide and Topo maps for the same areas.
They must be loaded from a maplist prepared in MapSource.

Once in your GPS, the maps operate under a hierarchy... certain ones
will override the others. To see the underlying maps, you must UNcheck
the maps higher up in the hierarchy so the lower order will display.

This uses a LOT of memory as you can guess.

On memory... I think City Select overrides MetroGuide and Metro
overrides Topos.
