[pct-l] Garmin 60CSx halfmile' map question

[Kolby Kirk]

I've had incredibly slow uploads (1-2 hrs) that have ended with an
error.  If I remember correctly, it had to do with available memory,
as in not having enough of it.  I'm unable to load more than the first
three PCT sections of Halfmile's waypoints due to memory.
