If you have a ton of duplicates, I wrote a PowerShell script that automatically renames all duplicate waypoints with an ~ in front of the name of all the duplicates and the first instance of the...

This works very well.
JB Weld also makes other epoxies. They make one that has an even higher tensile strength than the Marine formula. They list the strengths along with the compatibilities on all...

Just for a little clarification, if he is importing a file that was exported from a unit, he won’t have to change formats or anything. All brands automatically import and export gps data in the...

I wrote up some procedures awhile back if you are using an iPhone or iPad. My understanding is Android devices can export multiple waypoints at one time.
Here is a link to the pdf I created.

You pick which format you want to see. The different formats are in your menu settings. It’s like that with all brands.
No matter which format you choose to view, all brands use degrees internally....

Use your computer to see if there a folder named matrix on the card and look inside that folder to see if there is a file named DATA.HWR and any .HT files for any tracks you may have. If there is no...

You can close all of them and reopen them one by one in alphabetical order and they will be in order. If you have a bunch of different files, you can also create a new folder on your computer just...

The files will always show in HumminbirdPC in the order in which you opened/saved them. They will always show up when you start the program unless you close them. If you look in the folder where...

I was just trying to understand how you were managing your data and explain how HumminbirdPC handles Solix files. I was just giving some additional context to SLYDoggie's comments and didn't mean to...

How are you actually using it to "manage" your waypoints? If you are just loading waypoints by state, you don't really need HumminbirdPC for that. When you export a state from your Solix, you can...

I can do it very easily in a minute or two. You won’t have to label anything. All you will have to do is pick the Solix/Apex symbols you want to use in place of the Lowrance symbols. I will send...

Not SLYDoggie, but that sometimes works but not always. Corruption can also occur in the Nav Directory where the data resides. The data is ok but the Directory becomes corrupt due to "memory leaks"...

There is currently no Waypoint Management Software for Solix/Apex. I have been asked a few times if would write a program designed for Solix/Apex units but I just don't have the time it would take to...

I have been using these for years too. They work great. The only difference is I got mine on Amazon.

DO not Purge just yet.
Here is a link to a video showing how to recover deleted data using the Lowrance App. It will only work IF you have not Purged your unit. I have not used this procedure in the...

My buddy said this is exactly what was happening to his this past weekend.
He called Humminbird and they are aware of the issue and are working on a solution.

I forgot to mention there is another way to view your data in Google Earth using HumminbirdPC. It involves stripping the dates from the gpx file. It's not very difficult either but it does involve...

Did you export your Lowrance in usr or gpx format. The Garmin will need the file to be in gpx format. If you use different symbols, those need to be converted BEFORE importing into your Garmin. I can...

This is caused by a "slight bug" in the way HumminbirdPC handles the "transfer" to Google Earth. There are other programs that will allow you to open your waypoints in Google Earth and and still see...

Have you checked your Nav Data to see if for some reason it is actually saving the “spot locks” to your Nav Data? If it is saving them there, you could try deleting them from your list and see if...

I got their 120Ah battery a couple of years ago just for my electronics since it was so cheap. I only got about 40% of actual use though. I have a gauge that is hooked up to the battery that measures...

Garmin units are sometimes "finicky" when loading data from other brands. If there is any "corruption" in the data, Garmin units will not load the data. I can usually fix that and I'm glad to help....

Garmin units can be a little "finicky" when importing gpx data from other brands. If there is any "corruption", the Garmin units usually will not load that data.
I can probably help you with...
