Default convert points kml/kmz to cup

Does anyone have a reliable way to convert google earth .kml or .kmz to

I've tried the GPSBable program but it keeps giving me an error "No Valid
waypoints/routes/tracks translation specified". So apparently it does

not
read the .kml input file, but I can reopen it in google earth and it
appears to be valid.

GPS visualizer seems to make a .gpx file format but SeeYou cannot open

it.

Does anyone know what file specifications are needed for SeeYou gpx

input?

Oddly I had this work last week but not this week.

The fact that SeeYou cannot import and export .kml waypoint and track

files
is a big lost opportunity.

I have just used this link:

This does produce a .CUP file. In the example I used, the Altitudes seemed
odd, but that might be the input file. Remember to use a KML file and not
KMZ.
