according to talk-de, the maps do not show on the new HCx devices. It appears 
that it has to do with a change in one of the mkgmap versions as older maps 
still work.

If someone with such a device could fiddle out which version of mkgmap broke 
the map display and would inform Steve Ratcliffe it would be helpful, I 
guess.

HTH & best regards,
