Why iWay myWay?

A few weeks ago, I received a new gps unit: a Lowrance iWay 500c.

The unit is great. The Operating Instructions are not.

My goal is to create Operating Instructions for the Lowrance iWay500c which I wish would have come with the unit. Hopefully, you'll find them useful, too.

Maybe I can sell the results to Lowrance. Then they can come with the unit and every new owner will be more happy than confused.

Or perhaps I can just print up a copy for myself, one for my friend Gary, and a few dozen for the members of nuwaowners.org/forum who have been helpful to me with regard to not only gps but also our Hitchhiker RVs. (In addition, several of them have purchased RV Awning Travel Locks from me for their RVs, and I really appreciate that! And they'll appreciate the piece of mind that simple, effective, device brings.)

But certainly I can publish the information on this blog so that all who find it can benefit from the information. And anyone may comment; this could make the final version even better!

The plan is incomplete, but one of the first things to be published here will be a "menu tree." Every try to find the menu items in the book? Not there, are they! Should be, shouldn't they!

They'll be in iWay myWay, that's for certain.

Even though this is written about an iWay 500c, I suspect it will be equally useful to iWay 250c and iWay 350c owners.

All constructive comments are most welcome!
