GPSMAP 66s/st GPS software 2.81

Unread post by 987 »

I connected to Garmin express and it told me that an update of the GPS software was available. Version 2.81, but no information about changes, does anyone know what's new?

No information published at this time, but this GPS chipset firmware is used by other devices, including the GPSMAP 66i and Montana 7x0.

Perhaps one of those devices will soon have a change log that is more revealing...

It means Garmin does not want to publish any specific details about the changes that were made.

Position signal is not better with new version
I think it is a little bit worse than before (testing with bicycle)
