    Drive Track 70

    Is there a way to turn off the "tracks" feature on the DriveTrack 70 unit? I don't want to see everwhere the dog's been because it clutters the map. I have that feature turned off on my Alpha. Any help is appreciated! I've searched Garmin's site and it's not very helpful. Thanks!

    No. .........but they are probaby going to have way in future update. lots of complaints

    Re: Drive Track 70

    Thanks for the reply! I will definitely call Garmin and let them know that it would be a welcome change!

    Re: Drive Track 70

    Can you start a new hunt to clear tracks?I have been thinking of ordering one but was waiting on some input.Or can you reboot drivetrack to remove tracks?There has to be a way or else the screen would become a mess

    Re: Drive Track 70

    As of right now you will have to stop communication between the Alpha and the Drive Track. That can be accomplished by either rebooting the alpha or drive track. I'll probably go with rebooting the drive track just to be safe. As mentioned before I'm sure there will be a software update that will fix this oversight. I'd suggest giving Garmin a call and letting them know that this is an issue that needs to be fixed though. I spoke to them about it this afternoon. They seemed aware of it but didn't have a timeline on when an update would be available to fix it.

    Other than those problems how is the drive track performing overall? I haven't heard a lot about it, that could be a good thing. I am looking forward to getting one, but was hoping to hear more about it. Any info would be much appreciated. Thank you for your time guys.

    Re: Drive Track 70

    Haven't used it much except as a true GPS (in which case it's very good). Don't really need it in the pens I'm running now. I'll have a better idea how good it really is come October in some of the more wide open spaces. I'm expecting it to be nice to be able to see more area on a bigger screen. I'm a little concerned about the tracks cluttering the screen, but it seems that it's easy enough to "reboot" and get rid of them. As mentioned before I expect Garmin to have an update for that because I can see it as a major complaint but one of the few they'll have.

    Thanks Kevin.
