MuddyBottomBluz Posted April 5, 2019 Report Share Posted April 5, 2019 Stay off your boat Saturday night! All this GPS talk lately, break out the sexton and rock on a string, oh and those papers with all of those squiggly lines on them! https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/technology/heres-why-your-gps-could-go-haywire-this-weekend/ar-BBVDtJ9?li=BBnbfcL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
conocean Posted April 5, 2019 Report Share Posted April 5, 2019 I pray every night that GPS satellites stop working in ENP waters. 🙏🏻 This is selfish, I know. But the first step to recovery is admitting I have a problem! 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul, your dreams of being a true glades man, with unlimited local knowledge of where all the other "dudes" don't know where the bars are hiding and they stay away from Choko and the 10K's are gone bro....sell the camper to me for $5K, go back to FLL, and fish for snook under the docks at night...the FMT rebellion has killed all our secrets (LOL). dc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bamaskeet Posted April 7, 2019 Report Share Posted April 7, 2019 The GPS on my Lowrance HDS 12 Gen 2 quit this morning, after working flawlessly yesterday. I plan to call Lowrance tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vaca Cut Posted April 8, 2019 Report Share Posted April 8, 2019 MSN fake news, very doubtful it will be an issue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bamaskeet Posted April 8, 2019 Report Share Posted April 8, 2019 It's not fake news, I talked to Lowrance and they confirmed the problem and are working on a software fix. I didn't know what the issue was yesterday, but I thought it was strange that my unit was picking the satellite signals but would not display any info.

Bamaskeet Posted April 8, 2019 Report Share Posted April 8, 2019 Lowrance website gives a explanation of the problem and what units might be effected. My buddy's Gen 2 is working fine, so the problem doesn't happen with all Gen 2 machines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
