[mkgmap-dev] signed maps / new device

Tue Aug 3 13:09:40 BST 2021

Hello,

I just found this page:

https://www.gpsrchive.com/GPSMAP/GPSMAP%2066/Common%20Issues.html

Due to issue 26 it seems solved. But I do not fully understand whether
the issue truly no longer exists or it has been solved by not using
UTF-8 maps. If the latter is the case then it seems to be big problem
for me to accept it. Someone could confirm which of the cases it is?

Thanks

Marek
