Bingo!

I didn’t realize that “Online” selects everything. As you both suspected, it was the mapquest-aerial and mapquest ones giving the issue.

Playing further, i think i need to go with the Offline maps. I thought it saved the online maps to cache, but it seems to download the tiles everytime i move the map around.

Thanks-

Since they're raster maps they'll just pile on top of each other and you'll just see the last one loaded otherwise, plus you'll get the added timeouts from the ones that don't work.
