Just use Google Groups to search the archives of this newsgroup
and also alt.satellite.gps - the process is simple, but it
may not work for you, as it depends on what 'version' of
etrex Venture you have - I have a newer one, as a result
of a replacement by Garmin for a problem with my original
Venture, and the process will not work with it, but there
are a number of people who have reported it works for them
using their Venture.
