Correct, some fruit and veg are allowed but it almost all fruit and veg you regularly consumed may not enter Botswana.





Is venison (ostrich, springbok, etc.) also included in this ban? -...

Hi Searcher,

Fun and games, thank you for that update!

Lizette

I've got it in the comments, thank you!

Hi Jonatan,

This is great, thank you! I am going to look at the videos now - which direction were you travelling?

Lizette

Hallo Jonatan,

I've gone back in the T4A data submissions, to check the origin of this data in our maps. In May 2017, we received information that this road was now a good, graded gravel road, but...

Hi Gothan,

I will pass on your suggestion, all I know is that it does not work on Apple CarPlay!

Lizette

Hallo Gothan,

OSM does not have all the roads in the remote areas that we have on T4A, so one would potentially not be able to reach many of our POI's as there would be no roads on OSM to reach...

Indeed, as Gothan explained, the T4A navigation app is no longer available - with the onset of Covid, the developer of the app closed his doors, and we can no longer offer support for the app, so we...

Hi Rod,

No wild goose chase at all! There is more and more a tendency for farmers to start locking gates that run through their property, to keep unwanted elements out. We try to to ensure that we...

Hi RodS,<br>

I have just tried to replicate the route on Mapsource, and even with it set to "shortest route" all the routes I created to Motswedi took me back to either the north...

The hiking tent when I'm on my own and frequently (1 or 2 nights) moving camp, the larger tent when Mom is with me and we stand a few days in one spot.

Hi Tim,

Still not received, I've sent you a PM with my cell number, thanks!

Hi Tim,

Nothing received yet but will keep an eye out. I agree, DanieK's post on Basecamp Tips and Tricks, has really good information about using basecamp.

Hi Tim,


What happens if you use Grumbles's route, and first recalculate it as a route - does it also make the straight lines?


If Grumbles used one version of the T4A maps to create his...

Hi Tim,

The track in the image, is this the track you recorded while driving there, or is this a route you converted to a track on Basecamp? And yes, one cannot recalculate a track, as it is...

Hi Grumbles,

By choosing the "fastest" routing, you will most probably stay on the tar and main roads most of the way, and avoid the 4x4 tracks that may be shorter, but take a lot longer to...

Hi Grumbles,

Agreed it does not happen with all devices (I don't have issues with the Montana 650), but it does happen often (maybe only the newer devices?). So we recommend to create waypoints...

Hi Gavin,

In your App store, search for Tracks4Africa - you will find the T4A guide app, which is basically an electronic map. You download the app for free, with a basemap of 1:1mill scale. You...

PS. if you have created a route on Basecamp by using the routing tool, you can convert it to a track in Basecamp, and then send the track to the Garmin - you can now visually follow the track on your...

Hi Tim,



Unfortunately, for some reason, when you plan routes on Basecamp (or Mapsource), and send it to the Garmin, the Garmin likes to recalculate it. Various problems now occur: you must...

Hi Andrew,

Unfortunately I only have an Android phone, but see if you can follow these steps:

- Open Google Play (or iStore) and select "manage apps and devices" - it is probably called...

Hi all,

Apologies for not responding, for some reason I am no longer receiving notifications for the threads I am subscribed to on the forum. Thanks to Smithy for drawing the post to my attention....

HI Mitch,

Mountain Breeze is also closed at the moment, not sure if it is temporarily during Covid or a permanent closure.

Lizette

Thanks again everybody for the very useful information - I got hold of HenriS and we had a long conversation, major respect for the depth and amount of his knowledge. I now have to go back and do my...

Thank you everybody for the feedback - it is ASPW's youtube channel that has me stuck on the Troopie, I just can't afford all his modifications! I feel more at easy w.r.t. buying a mine vehicle, and...

Good day all,

Looking for some knowledgable advice. I have the opportunity to buy a Landcruiser 78 Wagon (also called a Troopcarrier or Troopy), 4.2 Diesel. It is a 2013 model, with high...

I will get one of the sales team to help you, they handle this kind of thing often - if they can't it might be a Garmin problem. If it is any consolation, you're not the only one that struggles with...

Hi Ben,

I am trying to find out for you - mine is set to 15 for cluster radius and 250 for num listings, I presume those are the pre-sets as I don't remember playing with this.
