One of my LS units appears to have a glitch that I need help fixing.
Occasionally the (Satellites/Receiver Name) screen icon on the top roe (near the center) will flash red. When the icon is red I can't collect data. Sometimes I can fix this by rebooting. However, sometimes the only cure is to update the unit. It requires that the unit be updated even though the unit is fully updated. I can live with this, but sometime I am not in a cell coverage area and must pack out and drive to a cell coverage area and be certain to not turn my unit off until I am finished for the day. My solution is to turn my unit on while in a coverage area and then drive or walk to the site. I have three other LS units and none of them display this problem.
