    Default Importing Coordinates to Humminbird


    I got almost 800 numbers to put on my 899. What's the best way or program to import them?

    Download Hummin bird pc, that's the way to do it. HBPC is a free download from Humming bird.

    If you have a lot of coordinates, I use GPSBabel first to read them from a CSV (Comma Seperated Value) file, and output them to a .gpx file for Humminbird. In Oklahoma the Dept of Wildlife has all the coordinates of brushpiles, etc on its website, I can then take those coordinates into GPSBabel and output it as a .gpx file. You can then open the .gpx file with HBPC. Here is a screenshot of how I use GPSBabel to output it to a .GPX file.

    What do you mean by importing, did someone give them to you in a different format?
