    My answer would be either run it through a breeder reactor and re-use or store it in the already built and paid for facility in Nevada. Problem solved (for engineers anyway). Political football players will have to come up with their own. Tracy Crook do not archive On Sat, Mar 15, 2008 at 12:24 PM, William Dean <billoves2fly@yahoo.com> wrote: > Yes sir!

    Jerry: That's not the case here.? Those of us experiencing this problem, it is the unit losing the time/date, not a signal problem.? When the unit does not properly store the date, it does not know where to look for the satellites when its next turned on, therefor it is "lost" for a long time until it figures out where it is and updates the clock.? Then the unit works fine until the next time its shut off for any length of time. Its definitely an internal clock issue and not an antenna issue.? The problem is this: is it a software issue, or a battery issue?? Most of the problems are being experienced by relatively new units, and all within the last year.? Seems like there must be a Garmin common problem, and thus a Garmin "fix"?

    Subject: Re: Garmin 296
    I was the first to comment on this, and mine's not a new unit. Perhaps 5 years old now. I last flew on 3/3, then went again yesterday and the unit thought the date was 3/11, so the thing seems to wander off into the weeds after a week of inactivity. Fixes itself rather promptly if the new location, automatic detect menu features are stepped through, otherwise it gives up trying to find a fix after a few m inutes and asks if I want to start simulator mode. -Bill B On Sun, Mar 16, 2008 at 4:23 PM, <darnpilot@aol.com> wrote: > Jerry: > > That's not the case here.
