GpsMap 276C Software 4.0 Released
Avoid this version like the plague. I'd logged over 12,000 miles with
versions prior to 4.0 and had zero problems. The first time out with 4.0 and it suddenly it was dropping all signals and refusing to reacquire, following a route and suddenly telling me it can't navigate due to no roads at my current location, deciding I'm half way around the world, etc. As near as I could tell, the only "improvements" are fewer voice prompts and icons on the find menu that are harder to see. I went back to 3.30 (most recent version I could find) and it's working fine again. |
