Is your GPS receiver running with the latest software update?
I receive a monthly newsletter from www.gpstraining.co.uk/. As the site address implies, this is a group located in the United Kingdom. Their site is packed with lots of info; so too is their news letter.
Their latest post caught my eye and is worth forwarding:
"Good manufacturers offer regular free updates for the software in your device as well as any supporting software on your PC/Mac like Basecamp; it’s in their interest as much as yours. Why? Because updates as well as offering access to new features are a useful way to fix software glitches and often a new update raises new glitches which means another update!!"
I recommend that GPS users update their receivers every few months. Also, I'd suggest that before uploading new mapping software this be done too. Simply put, an upgrade keeps your receiver current and provides corrections to software issues.
For those with older, discontinued models there may be no updates. Contact your manufacturer's website to resolve any issue.
