MOBILE:
We are very pleased to inform you of the Internet availability of SeeYou MOBILE Version 2.0 released June 30, 2004. There have been significant improvements over the 2004 SSA Convention version and you should go to the web site and download the free upgrade as soon as you have an opportunity: http://mobile.seeyou.ws/dload-mseeyou.php Be sure you have your PDA in its cradle and Active Sync running to facilitate the transfer and installation. There is also a PDF version of the Manual released June 30, 2004 in addition to the "On Screen" help within the program. You may find benefit in printing the Manual and carefully reading it to more fully comprehend all the power of version 2.0. I found it very useful. http://mobile.seeyou.ws/dload-help.php A significant concept, new to me, in MOBILE's moving map is using the L/D as the measure of ability to get to a given point or airport. You can set up two Nav Boxes on each map page with "Required L/D" and "Current Achieved L/D". I place Current above Required and can easily see my ability to make a given point and the safety margin. The "Altitude Reserve" you specified on the Mc/Wind page is included in the "Required L/D" calculation. You no longer need to think the larger numbers of altitude and elevation, just what kind of L/D (two digit numbers) you need compared with what you actually have. This automatically corrects for estimated wind, bugs, water ballast and sink! Other outstanding features include automatic START with the time displayed on the screen, Airspace Warnings and automatic logging of the flight from the received GPS data, not the log in a logger memory. Read the Manual so you don't miss the many important features so easy to use once you know how to activate them. SeeYou: You should also be running SeeYou v2.7 for the latest MOBILE Connection Wizard to easily transfer the desired Vector maps, waypoints, airports and airspace into your PDA. http://www.seeyou.ws/dload-seeyou.php Be sure you select the "UPGRADE" or you will loose your personal settings and registration key and have to reenter them. Check your SeeYou waypoint database to verify if the runways are properly aligned after removing the magnetic variation. That way they will display in the proper orientation on MOBILE's maps. The World Wide Turnpoint Exchange has a SeeYou.CUP version of each database under the "Files Formatted for Downloading" section. See the example for Harris Hill on the link below. You have to scroll down to http://acro.harvard.edu/SOARING/JL/T...ll//files.html You can easily verify if your waypoint database in SeeYou has the runway info or if you need to open and correct each point. If all the runways are aligned North-South nothing has been done to correct the database. You may also notice all are identified as PAVED RUNWAYS. Good luck and contact Andrej or me if you need help. I know you will spread the word once you start using it!
