[QUOTE="OrioN, post: 2279514, member: 58562"] that's the thing... i'm in HD and the Ground/HD system doesn't save those notes... i was testing it out the past week, but no go i'm trying to build a database for the next driver who runs this rural area, so when i transfer to another hub on labor day that driver will not have to waste time hunting some of these wacky stops for example, some customers' homes have really low telephone or cable wires so the overhead clearance is less than 10 feet. by Fall/winter, these drivers won't see it in the dark and drive in with their P700s that's ~12 feet high and take them out other's, like the picture i posted up, have signs not to enter their gate & just DR right outside of it &/or DR to the side door / garage/ barn instead... u will not see those signs in the dark i'll just jot them down on paper for now & hopefully they'll update the software to include this effective tool in our powerpads also, i got one zipcode, but has 4 different town names that i cover over a 160 mile area... there are some shared street names that have same zip, but if you're not keen on reading the town &/or customer names, you'll go to the wrong street 30 minutes away. the DRA, ROADS, Orion, or whatever mapping software HD uses will sequence it wrong (misplot) & i'll have to catch them while i'm preloading. I also gotta flex some stops to 2 other routes in the AM or else it'll be a code 012 (sorted to the wrong route) while on the road. i'm cramped for space in that 400 cu ft uhaul as it is now so i don't wanna take stuff along for the ride [/QUOTE]
