Actually... If you have the lastest radio mobile it is able to automatically pull down the SRTM3 files.
What I did in one case where I didnt have the SRTM file, and I was going to be out in the field I downloaded the files by hand from this site. http://dds.cr.usgs.gov/srtm/version2_1/SRTM3/North_America/ OR from Nasa Direct. And (unzipped) put them in a directory for radio mobile (Same directory as described in the map properties window) And actually I just re-ran my radiomobile program, and its automatically grabbing the SRTM Data (140 sets to be exact) This is what I have setup for my 'internet options' Im running version 9.8.1 Robert West wrote: > Okay, I went through it here and getting the terrain maps is indeed the > place where I give up.
