Hi all,

I have a Garmin gps2 plus and would like to download my waypoint list
and plot to a
certain scale. any idea how I might do this? I do have access to
autocad and have
the interface cable.

any help would be appreciated,
Ron

The free package GPS Trackmaker will do all of this, see:

If you really want to plot your data using Autocad you could download
it using DNRGarmin and save it as an ArcView shape file, which I
believe Autocad can load. But this might be overkill, GPS Trackmaker
can upload and download waypoints and tracks and plot them nicely.
It's easy to use as well, a good place to start.
