Author How to load POI into Quest

Hi, Hi would like to do geocaching and load POI into my questI. The POI
loader only works with Quest II I think. Do I have to do it through the
mapsourse software?

Thanks

For geocaches you'll want to input waypoints. The POI loader permits
additions to the unit's POI database. You can create a waypoint in
Mapsource and upload it into the Quest or just enter one directly (Name, Lat
& Long) into the Quest using the keypad. For some odd reason Garmin calls
waypoints "My Locations" in the Quest and waypoints in Mapsource - same
thing though.
