Thumbs up An Interesting GPS problem

Hi BB,

While fishing on Sunday, I noticed that my Garmin GPS 72 would crash. Screen go blank or blank with a vertical line. This has happened for the past few months. When the GPS crashed, I would have to disconnect power and remove batteries before I could turn it back on; sort of like a reset.

I spoke to Garmin. They stated there is a software issue when using the WAAS feature. They are working on a fix and suggested turning off the WAAS for now.

The web site is:
