GPS and War in Yugoslavia

Hello fellow Ppruners

A PPL holder told me that during the 1999 NATO attack in Yugoslavia his GPS unit believed itself to be in Spain rather that Greece where it was at the time.

Anyway I did check with a friend and he said his GPS was functionning OK this morning.

And BTW about this £90 Garmin any ideas where I can purchased. I looked at the Pilot shop in London but the cheapest unit was over £110 !!!
