I have posted about this before. It regularly takes 20 to 40 min to get satellite acquisition with my 400t. This is in areas that have a little tree cover....
Something you can test is to turn your Colorado on and see if it shows the correct time/date, or the longitude/latitude of the last location you used it. I...
I'm jumping to conclusions, but it sounds broken to me. I'd seriously consider sending it back to Garmin, especially if it's under warranty. I used a 400c for...
My forerunner 10x was so lousy at keeping a satellite lock that I threw it in a dumpster mid-run. It was either that, or I was going to hunt down the marketing...
I've got a need to have my Colorado 300 attached to a comm port on a PC laptop (details below). Garmin says the 300 can't talk to a PC via serial, only USB....
... You can put the the device into Spanner mode under System>Interface>Garmin Spanner and run a program on your computer called Spanner which will allow you...
... Yeah, I checked into that. Unfortunately, my laptop runs vista and here's what Garmin says about spanner and vista: "The Spanner program is designed to be...
I became so frustrated with the firmware shortcomings of the Colorado, I sold it and got a an Oregon. From a hardware standpoint I think that I liked the...
I've been getting the most bizarre warning message from my Oregon 400t with 3.01 sofware: Something about "XM Radio not supported on this device". I assume...
I'm out in a park with no trees around, sitting still, and the satellite screen bounces around from 12 to 14 foot accuracy. Is this the norm? In town, walking...
My Colorado is loaded with topo for hiking and marine charts for kayaking. So it supports multiple maps ...in fact you can enable both at the same time From:...
It sounds reasonable..it really depends on how many satellites its receiving and where they are in the sky. When there are more satellites closer to horizon,...
Brunton made a GPS that gets weather over XM radio, as do a number of marine chartplotters/radars/gps. Perhaps this is for a future Garmin device, or includes...
Yes, that is completely normal. 14 feet is actually fairly good -- also, I also believe the unit reports worst possible error. In other words, that is the...
But, it is limited to displaying 2048 map "segments" (or something like that). The definition of a "segment" is typically a city or region, I believe. A friend...
I would also bet on the XM weather info. Garmin already makes aviation models that receive and display live XM satellite imagery. It's like magic when flying...
Yes you can load these maps on a colorado but they must all be built in the same image file. I can build a number of image files and put a mix of them on a...
i have a 400c when i did a hard reset i lost the marin map with the bass mape could any one help me in getting the mape down loaded to my unit or tell me were...
I disagree with what you have said, but perhaps I am missing something. I bought a Colorado 400 with built in marine charts. I bought an SD Card. I bought the...
Let me clear this up if I can. On your colorado, you have an internal image file with the marine and rough world basemap called gmapprom.img. Then you put a...
Your email came out just minutes prior to my receiving an announcement of new firmware for the Oregon 400t which appears to enable any number of different maps...
I was running Beta 3.01 which as far as I can tell has all of the features of this firmware which is a release format. The Colorado has not received any...

I have the colorado 300 and would like to get the street mapping for it. Does anyone have the mapsorce for the US? or how or where I need to go to get it? Â ...
The only thing that you may be able "to get" from someone else is Topo National, National Parks 24k, and Inland lakes. The rest require a serial number for the...
