misfish Posted August 15, 2009 Report Share Posted August 15, 2009 Headed out today for a ride to Couch with the mrs,s this morning. What a great day for a boat ride. Once we got into Couch,I had no satilite readings. So Im guessing I need a new chip for this area and the routes to GBay. The ride back was awesome. 2+ waves coming from the south, and the boat was full out and it was a great ride. When we hit the mouth of Kempenfelt,it was glass. Oh BTW,LOTS of down rigging going on out there. Most I seen in years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest skeeter99 Posted August 15, 2009 Report Share Posted August 15, 2009 no satellite readings means your unit might be toast you should still get a reading regardless of what chip is in the unit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest steel'n'esox Posted August 16, 2009 Report Share Posted August 16, 2009 I have a Garmin 276c and the same card you have, it shows only the south end of GB Midland Penatang area, you need the next card over, you can go on Garmins website and get the card number, and also see the areas covered by each card.
