I think he's the lead programmer for 705 functionality but that's just a guess. FYI the latest is that he's acknowledged the raw power pre-filter and now understands that it needs to be removed. I don't know when that will be...but it will make the PT-garmin combo much better. Hi Bruce,

I was wondering if you had a main contact at Garmin you are working with. All of the call center people are helpful, but it seems like the some issues are outside of their training. Hi Dave,

I'm using TopoFusion, GTC, and WKO, and straight off the 705 in windows explorer. Garmin has known about this for a long, long time. Slipstream used the Garmin/PT combo in the tour this year (and surely other events). During that time Saris contacted Garmin about the smooting of the raw data, and their initial response was that the smoothing was done at the request of ANT+ consortium members. They have not yet fixed it but have know for at least 1/2 year it is not satisfactory, during which time at least one (maybe 2) firmware upgrades have come out for the edge. Go here for more beta and a few pics: http://groups.google.com/group/wattage/browse_thread/thread/aa2d92c4e8b1c4b7?hl=en You'll need to join if you haven't yet.

What software are you suing to pull the data file from the 705? Have you tried pulling the data file with a different tool?

Technological evolution is tedious. Maybe if I wait just a little longer they'll integrate the I-phone with the 705, fix the Garmin, create a real users manual, and give me some wireless coverage here in the boonies. Thanks for the heads up. Crap. Guess I’m hanging onto my wired tap for awhile longer then. Technological evolution is tedious.
