Yes, works great. You do have to use a port splitter though to use your GPS with more than one app at a time. I used Xport last year. It's free and worked great. Xport doesn't work with Vista though supposedly, so I purchased GPSGate for this year. The port splitter will load in your GPS on it's assigned Com port, then will provide virtual Com ports for the other apps to use. For example, Xport may read the GPS on Com6, then provide virtual Com7 and virtual Com8 which GR and MS S&T would use respectively.

Speaking of GRLevel3 and roads, I imported some custom road files into it and the main roads and highways aren't quite lining up with the roads that were preloaded into the program, does anyone know how to turn those off so that I can only see the ones I loaded? It's not bad, but I am getting a bit of a "paralleling effect" and when I'm zoomed in and it can get a bit confusing at times.

Well I feel stupid...I turned it off before, but I was zoomed all the way out and every highway turned off, so I assumed that it also turned off the roads I imported in. As soon as I zoom in a little though everything is fine.

Once upon a time there was a website mentioned in one of the posts to go and get some really good info on this product and it was decently priced. Does anyone remember what this website was? I would really appreciate any help. Thanks.
