Hello,
From time to time I connect to Garmin Connect which updates the CPE, at the moment it dates from 08/25 as well as the EPO. It's recent.

What does it show in 'Setup > About' on the GPSr?

Scroll one page down from there.
See GPSrChive > GPSMAP 66sr > Setup > About for example.

Hello,
It is well indicated CPE: current. So it doesn't come from this.
Before sending it back to the after-sales service, I will wait until September to see if Garmin keeps its word to know how to make a fix for GNSS.

I don't know if we can talk about it here, but I had patched the firmware to be able to read a card that didn't work without the patch. I put the version 3.80 back unpatched and after some time the Galileo satellites no longer flash .... I will see on several hikes to see if this is confirmed. In this case it's my fault.
If this post is not relevant you can delete it, thank you.

By connecting to IQ the CPE.BIN updates itself, but as soon as it is updated three out of five satellites flash again, wouldn't it be the CPE that is causing the problem ....

We do not promote hacking firmware here, we leave that to the 'hack forums'.
Your post is relevant to the subject matter, thank you for sharing this information!
