It has been about six weeks since the GALILEO GNSS was operational. Has there been any update from Garmin that enables their receiver to work with GALILEO satellites?
Garmin's literature says their product can receive GALILEO signals. Since Garmin products employ an ON-OFF setting for GLONASS, it seems reasonable to infer that Garmin would provide the same...
Yes--good questions.
It remains to be seen how GARMIN can verify its claim that its GPS-19x receiver is ready for GALILEO if there is no ON/OFF button for GALILEO as there is for GLONASS.
In...
I thought the topic was GALILEO satellites being shown on GARMIN GPS 19x, not hair color.
The satellites in GPS, SBAS, GLONASS, and GALILEO are (literally) over our heads at this moment.
Thanks for posting a polar plot or "sky view" from the Garmin GPS19x receiver. The screen capture deserves a bit of annotation. The polar plot shows elevation and azimuth to three categories of...
It's going to be interesting to see how Garmin will show GALILEO satellites. Garmin seems to use the NMEA ID numbers for satellite identification, and NMEA (in its earlier revisions) does not provide...
A few days ago the European Commission announced their GNSS GALILEO was now at the status of INITIAL SERVICES. This means signals from their constellation should be operation, usable, and accurate.

Thank you for that information.
I could not tell what areas of Canada were included in the US chart bundle from the site you directed me to.
As a corollary question, if one buys the Canadian lake chart version, do the included charts cover the Great Lakes waters of Canada? Again, I am specifically interested the three areas I mentioned in...
In the standard US-version of the Garmin chart plotters, do the included charts cover the Canadian portions of these Great Lake areas:
--Lake Huron and the North Channel,
--Georgian Bay and the...
You might have discovered a glitch in the operating system of the devices. Sorry; I know that is not very helpful, but I think it is a reasonable possibility.
In the article I linked earlier
continuousWave: Whaler: Reference: E-TEC Rigging
you'll find a link to the installation instruction for the water pressure kit. You can read Evinrude's...
For information on E-TEC rigging and installing a water pressure sensor, see

If you install the Evinrude OEM water pressure sensor on an E-TEC,...
WAAS is not available "everywheres." It is transmitted from three geo-stationary satellites that only cover (usefully) North America. Even if you could receive WAAS somewhere else, its augmentation...
What was all that other stuff for?
To step away from work histories of participants, and get back to the initial question:
I recommend you enable WAAS. (See method I described above). It cannot...
The word "terrain" comes from a root that means earth. On the water there is no terrain. Water is flat. The only time "local terrain" will affect reception of signals from satellites would be in a...
continuousWave: Whaler: Reference: Lowrance HDS Menu Map
On the SATELLITES page, hit the CONFIGURE soft-key button to reveal a new window. On that window you can set WAAS ENABLE to ON (blue...
Mark--are you certain about that? I interpreted the setting to mean that if WAAS is disabled, you will never get WAAS augmentation. If WAAS is enabled, you will get WAAS augmentation when available....
pmnav12--Thanks for the reply to my three questions. I did not make question number three very clear. Let me explain futher:
The water level on many lakes can vary during the year and from year to...
I have three questions about the new SonarChart program:
--will the method of uploading data and downloading chart updates be available to users of the MacOS?
--how will user-data about water...
It's not me defining the meaning of obsolete; it is Merriman-Webster. It is not me that stopped making that style of gauge-connector combination; it was Lowrance. I am just using obsolete to describe...
Please note what I said: LMF-400 gauges with the LowranceNET BLUE connectors are obsolete. "Obsolete" means "of a kind or style no longer current." This is a very accurate description of the LMF-400...
LMF-400 gauges with the LowranceNET BLUE connectors are obsolete. If you are buying a new gauge you will get one with a LowranceNET RED (now BLACK) connector.
Export the waypoints you want to use with your HDS from your current device in the .GPX format. I assume you will be able to store the .GPX file on a Secure Data (SD) memory card. Put the SD Memory...
