It is mac compatible if you run a Parallels virtual machine like me

Otherwise GPSActionReplay should let you do it.

Yes you can

> If you already have gpsresults, fire it up,

select file > open, select the files that you wish to combine (concatenate) with the <ctrl> key pressed and with the left mouse button click each file to select,

now select open.

Select <no> to "average results from two gps devices",
and select <yes> to "concatenate files"

you can save the combined file to sbp format via the file save trackpoints menu, selecting navi files sbp format.

Job done

No probs guyz!

Mike George (K888) GTC Team Captain for Team East wrote a superb in depth analysis on gps devices, linked below. Page 18 of 36 Para "After Sailing" describes how sbn files can be combined at the dos command prompt in windows, prior to loading into one of the track analysis programs.

I'm not sure how many files can be combined in GPSR, only tried two files myself.

Mikes' method described in his manual would allow for the combining of multiple files, and multiples of combined files.
