Harry:  Thanks!

Akanna: The way you're using the tools, not navigating with a GPX, no, I 
don't think the route points make any difference.  

*With* GPX navigation, there is an option "Calculate route between points"; 
it uses the routing points to create a route.  I've had some success with 
that, but, so far, not perfection.
