You might try opening the file with some of the third party applications
here:
http://gpsinformation.net/#3rdparty
There are a number of freewares and sharewares there. GPS Utility will
open the files that were saved to the SD cards on the Meridians, not
sure if that is the same format you have there or not.
I can't remember all the details but the process of saving data into
files in the Magellan format and them opening the files from the
Meridian did not work very well. It had something to do with the model
to model variations in the format and the symbol sets used from one
model to another.
