I've just upgraded to an RNS-E, so no longer have the old Navi to play
with, but don't you set a final destination (calculate route?) and then
press the 'Return' button to enable entry of stop-overs?

OK, I just tried it. You enter your normal destination and then start
the navigation. Once it's calculated your route, press Navigation
again and the next destination you enter will be a "stopover". It
seems to only let you do one though, so you can only have
(a)->(b)->(c).

Thanks for the idea ; I will try this !

When we are arrived in the intermediate "stopover", does the navigation
system automatically continue (restart) to the scheduled final destination
?

Hi there,

Yes it does automatically move on to the final destination. I also found it
slightly disappointing that you can't set multiple intermediate waypoints,
but before you start your journey you can set all the required places as
destinations. Use the "Sort" function to place those points at the top of
your memory then it's easy to pick the next one when needed.

For example, if I drive from Bath to Peterborough Mildred (as she is fondly
known) may try to send me along the M4 west, M5 north, M42, M6, A14 and A1.
But if I preferred to go generally north-east past Oxford and Northampton I
would set up the following destinations:
1 - Oxford
2 - Northampton
3 - Peterborough

Then set out along the M4 until you are somewhere past Swindon (which you
can see on the on-screen map) and start navigation to Oxford. When you get
somewhere near Oxford stop navigation and re-start it with Northampton as
the target. Then, when close to Northampton stop navigation again and
choose Peterborough as the final target. It's not ideal, but it does work
provided you remember to set it up before you start your journey.

I haven't updated my CDs lately but I see the latest ones for the UK include
the TMC function via a Classic FM data feed. Has anyone tried this feature?

regards,
David.
