I have a Garmin III Pilot GPS and have found a problem that might be of interest. After loading the version 2.06 upgrade of the software I found that when the backlight was turned up to the highest level, the receiver would loose the satellite signals and I received a message "poor GPS coverage". Of course this meant that it was inoperable. After turning the backlight off it would again aquire the satellites and operate properly. I called Garmin and was advised that the early units had a different "board" and yes this was a problem. I have owned this unit for over THREE years. I was given an RMA number and told to return the unit to Garmin for Warranty repairs. I have always enjoyed flying with the Garmin III pilot and really like it more now. Great service.
