Garmin dealer

Hi,

Anyone know of a garmin dealer who could put HXEU300P on an old legacy data card for my GPSMap198? And possibly even the "updated system software" which is apparently necessary to use it?

Cheers,

Dan

Ahh! I'd assumed that you had a data card. What type is it?

You need one of these or someone with one of these....

GPS GARMIN MAPSOURCE USB DATA CARD PROGRAMMER PART NUMBER 010-10776-00 | eBay

Pity as I gave mine away last year with a blank card to someone in the same predicament as you.

You could post on YBW and see if someone there has one.
