Ok Tom,

You need to name the folder this way:

First option:
put all the files into the ucac4 folder (900 files)
turn ucac4.tdf on in the user data

Second option
create a folder ucac4
create 2 folders (u4n and u4s) inside the ucac4 folder
put the North files in u4n (380 to 900) and South file in u4s (1 to 379)
turn ucac4.tdf on in the user data


BTW do not delete ucac3 in Guide 9 folder. These will automatically come
on when settings are above the ucac4.

First options works just fine for me.
