Hi,
After not using my etrex for a few weeks, as soon as I turned it on, I found that the map wasn't loaded. All other stuff (ie tracks, waypoints, routes, etc.) were being displayed but no streets at all!
After a few tries of shutting the GPS off and turning it back on, still no luck. I decided to remove the memory card (microSD) and cleaned the pins/slits and after doing that and turning on the GPS, all the streets came back.
Question is, is this something that should be regularly expected? I think this has happened to me twice already within a span of 2 months. Is it time to change to a different memory card? Or is it a problem with the unit?
My Etrex Vista HCx is only around 3 months old.
