Sounds are included, when on this map, for description of position relative to the Railway Station and Hospital. MAX1.NME provides a filtered version of NEWTRIP.NME with only $GPRMC sentences. This makes it smaller to email. The little QBASIC program used for this filtering is in RMCONLY.BAS if you want to use it. I believe the Zona 9 street map is calibrated correctly, but note that GPS errors of up to 100m are large at this scale. The yellow circles plotted are 50m radius.
