hold around 18,000 POI's (Points of Interest), which allows me to do all
of the 48 states, VFR/ILS and NDB approaches and Seaplane bases.


Eventually I found that I had too many waypoints in my Garmin, so I
downloaded everything to the computer (using EZGPS software) and
massaged them a bit and made them into two databases, one with
everything I might ever need, the other with the few dozen that I use
on a monthly basis. Then I erased the Garmin's memory and uploaded
just the short version. I make sure that home plate is the first entry
