I've just updated www.gpss.co.uk/ppcbeta.htm with this ....
help us test the very latest GPSSppc ...
Beta testers are welcome - please start with gpssppc.exe inside the baseline, before replacing it with the latest gpssppc.exe. The full Windows GPSS baseline includes v11 of the Pocket PC Baseline. We now have a beta version of GPSSppc v12 including supporting files below. It helps Robin if you test the very latest gpssppc.exe - it confirms that he has not introduced new bugs :-)
Please make sure you have all files from the current GPSS Baseline v6.92 (GPSSA.EXE download) before you apply files from PPCBETA.EXE below.
from Robin on 23rd July 2009: I have just uploaded the GPSSppc v12i in www.gpss.co.uk/ce/ppcbeta.exe DO NOT RUN from your browser. SAVE into your GPSS folder. Exit your Net browser. PPCBETA.EXE self-extracts into GPSSPPC.EXE and supporting files needed, such as changes to online help, button icons, sounds, etc. v12i displays Direction Finding by drawing a line on the map at an absolute bearing entered on the keyboard as '090 followed by Enter. Minor changes were also made to the AutoPilot logic. v12h (from March) supported recording of speed trap locations into NEWTRAP.TXT, NEWTRAP.DAT and an NME file. See the recording and playback facilities in the user guide. Andy in Poland asked for this and has done most of the testing. Full Windows GPSS already supported this.
... etc, etc ...

Hi Robin,
Thanks for new beta version. All works fine.
As to speedcams warning..Nobody has mentioned about it before but if anybody has a problem with loading warning.txt , it can be solved easily by entering regional setting and changing comma for dots.
It would be nice to have in the future gpssppc:
- big military compass for hiking
- sunrise and sunset info
- moon phases
- may be drawing a track by stylus which would be followed by gpss
-adding multiply waypoints/no category/ for complex routes
-adding positions and descriptions to what menu categories directly from gpssppc
-editing above mentioned directly from gpssppc
I would find them very helpful.

Thanks Andy. I must remember to paste this posting into a direct email to you.
I don't have too much confidence in this Forum technically.
It's a pity it does not automatically forward postings to my email system.
I've just uploaded v12j, updated the usual pages including www.gpss.co.uk/ppcbeta.htm then I saw your posting. I must remember to move you up the PPCUSERS page, but will hold off a day or two since you may try v12j :-) It's now possible to use the keyboard to enter things like a destination lat/lon or a DF bearing line to be put on the map. I will also need to update the user guide page.
Thanks for the ideas - if someone would like to find the formulae,
for things like sun and/or moon azimuth, as a function of lat/lon, time and date,
I might add some stuff into GPSSppc. e.g. showing moon and sun on instrument panel,
and/or some of those things you suggest.

Hi Robin,
I have been using v.12j since yesterday. All seems OK. I like the idea of using keyboard to enter lat/lon.
DF is also a good idea Robin
And geocaching import works fine as well. May be I will take up to it......
As to sun and moon info I would find them very helpful in spearfishing and sea kayaking.It might be even a small separate screen
I have seen something like that in Pocket Clock software
