Default Turnpoint File Management

So, I now have multiple loggers (an older CAI Model 20 and an EW

SeeYou can export waypoints and tasks in multiple formats. *So far so

Now, the problem. * The older CAI can only handle 250 waypoints. There
are more than 500 waypoints in my file. * I have a long task which
isn't conveniently laid out such that a "four corners" approach can
restrict me to only those turnpoints relevant to the task (it's a long
triangle). * I don't see any way in SeeYou to conveniently restrict
the output of the CAI format file to only those points that fall
within the task area.

Anyone have any ideas? *I'd prefer to find a way to use SeeYou for
this to avoid having multiple versions of the files floating around,
but I'm open to other options...

Why do you need any turnpoints in the CAI 20? Are you using it for
navigation? I have a model 25 and it still has an old turnpoint file
from probably over 10 years ago. All it does it is make it beep when
I fly over Aguila which used to be the first turnpoint in our local
database. Not having a current database does not prevent the CAI from
being used as a (in my case backup)logger.
