#LOWRANCE GPS MAPS FREE DOWNLOAD ZIP FILE#
On my MAC it downloads as an image and not as a zip file so it is easy to place in the folder this might be different on a PC. Download the file with the name “osm_generic_new_gmapsupp.zip” and the description says “compressed file containing a single image that can be placed directly onto the SD card of the GPS”.Click on the download map now link and another window will open.Note: download map now does not always work so see step 4. Example, using the Asia drop down, choose “Laos” and then at step 4 (request map) you will see “download map now” link on the screen immediately.
