Garmin GPS – Ways to speed up search for Satellite at a new city?

admin — Thu, 29 Jul 2010 16:49:22 +0000

I have a Garmin Nuvi 265. When I bring it with me on trips to other cities, I notice it takes a LONG time to search for satellite the first time I use it at the new location. Is there any tricks to make it faster?
It’s quite annoying when you hooking it up in the rental car and have to wait for a long time before it can tell you where to go.

The GPS one of the things you hook up into your car that you put where you need to go into the thing and it gives you directions.My question is do you have to pay a monthly bill for like hooking it up to a satellite or whatever?Because I read you just have to buy it and that is it.Are there any hidden charges?

I got a garmin nuvi for Christmas and it just keeps saying aquiring satellites, should I return it?

admin — Sat, 05 Jun 2010 19:14:40 +0000

I live in a major city so there should not be a problem finding a satellite. I can program it but all it does is keep flashing the little car symbol on the one area I was in a few days ago….any suggestions? Do I call Garmin or return it to where it was purchased?

Is anyone having problems with GPS systems?

admin — Mon, 24 May 2010 13:49:43 +0000

I have a Portable GPS for my car it is made by Pilot Automotive and the model # is NAV-900 I have not been able to aquire a signal and when I called tech support they are telling me there was a problem with the satellites due to the recent transition to digital cable. They told me to wait for about a week and the satellite are due to be reprogrammed. This explanation seems a bit odd, has anyone else had any issues with thier GPS system?

TomTom iPhone 3GS App Overview – 17th August 2009

admin — Thu, 20 May 2010 01:58:13 +0000

I purchased the TomTom app, the minute it was released (12 midnight). I’ve been playing about with it for an hour or two and must say – I am impressed. Hope you enjoy it. Feel free to ask any questions in the comment box. I think its competitively priced, considering that Navigo is priced at around about the same price… TomTom have done well to price it similarly. £59.99 on the App store. Released 17th August 2009.

500+ mph with the Garmin Nuvi 265WT GPS during flight

admin — Tue, 20 Apr 2010 11:32:39 +0000

We took the Garmin Nuvi 265WT GPS from take off to cruising altitude and speed in a Cessna 750. The tracking worked great and we saw the unit go up to 625 mph although the video only showed around 500 mph. It was fun comparing the Nuvi to the in-flight map because we got to see our flight moving over roads! However, while the speed were comparable, we noticed that after above 10000 feet, the altitude didn’t match the in-flight map by as much as several thousand feet (at 25000 ft). We assume the in-flight system is more accurate. See the video response titled “40000 ft altitude …” video where we take the same GPS but recorded its usage on a commercial flight. www.youtube.com
