After witnessing the continued decrease of involvement in the SpotterNetwork staff in serving SN members with troubleshooting issues recently, I have unilaterally decided to terminate the relationship between SpotterNetwork's support and Stormtrack. I have witnessed multiple users unable to receive support weeks after initiating help threads on the forum. I find this lack of response from SpotterNetwork officials disappointing and a failure to hold up their end of the agreement that was made years ago, before I took over management of this site. In my opinion, having Stormtrack users sit and wait for so long to receive help on SpotterNetwork issues on the Stormtrack forums reflects poorly not only on SpotterNetwork, but on Stormtrack and (by association) me as well. Since the issue has not been satisfactorily addressed, I no longer wish for the Stormtrack forum to be associated with SpotterNetwork.
I apologize to those who continue to have issues with the service and continue to see their issues left unaddressed. Please understand that the connection between ST and SN was put in place long before I had any say over it. But now that I am the "captain of this ship," it is within my right (nay, duty) to make adjustments as I see necessary. Ending this relationship is such an adjustment.
For those who continue to need help, I recommend navigating a web browswer to SpotterNetwork's About page, and seeking the individuals listed on that page for all further inquiries about SpotterNetwork.
From this moment forward, the SpotterNetwork sub-forum has been hidden/deleted and there will be no assurance that any SpotterNetwork issues brought up in any of Stormtrack's other sub-forums will be addressed. Do not rely on Stormtrack for help with SpotterNetwork issues.
Sincerely, Jeff D.

Yes, works great. You do have to use a port splitter though to use your GPS with more than one app at a time. I used Xport last year. It's free and worked great. Xport doesn't work with Vista though supposedly, so I purchased GPSGate for this year. The port splitter will load in your GPS on it's assigned Com port, then will provide virtual Com ports for the other apps to use. For example, Xport may read the GPS on Com6, then provide virtual Com7 and virtual Com8 which GR and MS S&T would use respectively.

Speaking of GRLevel3 and roads, I imported some custom road files into it and the main roads and highways aren't quite lining up with the roads that were preloaded into the program, does anyone know how to turn those off so that I can only see the ones I loaded? It's not bad, but I am getting a bit of a "paralleling effect" and when I'm zoomed in and it can get a bit confusing at times.

Well I feel stupid...I turned it off before, but I was zoomed all the way out and every highway turned off, so I assumed that it also turned off the roads I imported in. As soon as I zoom in a little though everything is fine.

Once upon a time there was a website mentioned in one of the posts to go and get some really good info on this product and it was decently priced. Does anyone remember what this website was? I would really appreciate any help. Thanks.
