n I use the 'L' key to navigate the cursor over my reading, the result in s=
ome cases is way off, sometimes by 25 metres or so. I believe my GPS receiv=
er is accurate as I visited a web site that helps with Satellite dish setti=
ng up and the readings agreed.

So either there's still a problem with my reading of the GPS, the 'L' key m=
ight not be the best tool to use, (although it seems ideal for single point=
 entries) or the roads already recorded are a tad out of place?

Can anybody suggest what I'm probably doing wrong? Thanks.

Pete
