unpleasant surprise: Garmins older 4xx/5xx 8k33 capable GNSS/NAV/COM cannot store 8k33 frequencies, so the lookup of frequencies from the GPS is broken, wonder what they paid to get a 8k33 radio not capable to store 8k33 frequencies certified, upon complaint they say it is a database issue they are not willing to fix
Is this applicable to the older sets that have not been upgraded to WAAS status? My 430 stores my local 8.33khz frequencies to the best of my knowledge (although your post will make me check next time out) and I've not seen the issue mentioned before.
