Garmin GPS Units WAAS Update. Unit Freezes Up!!
I have been having an issue with my Garmin Rino 120 for a while now. About 45-60 seconds into turning it on the screen would go blank except for a thin horizontal line. the unit is unresponsive and I would have to remove the batteries and try it again with the same outcome again and again and again and so on. Well I finally researched the issue and found a post on some repair forum. The issue is with the WAAS system, from what Garmin told me is that the US Govt moved a satellite and it is interfering with communications on gps units. What you have to do is fire up your unit, go to your control panel and disable WAAS. then download a software update. Once complete you can enable WAAS and everythiing is back to new.
Just wanted to pass this on incase someone is having the same issues I was.
