Thanks to all that replied, I will go with v4.06 as soon as I get to a PC. I sold my Meridian Gold to my brother and I wanted to at least try out the new firmware before I give it up. Again thanks to all.....NT

I'm running v3.12 in my Meridian Gold and want to update it to something as reliable and stable as
what i'm using now. So tell us, what is the best version to run on the Meridian....

The M315 was my first unit,it has never let me down. I have the latest and last version v3.15 which is still availalbe on the Magellan site.
It is not a map unit but if you can get it for 75 to 85 dollars get it. It's old looking but as long as there are birds up there it will always get you where you need to be. I now have a Meridian Gold and use the 315 as a backup/loner, is still proves its worth, i will hang on to it...Any GPS is better the no GPS..

Does anyone have the Costco item # for the Sport Trak Pro ? And, can you get it at the store or is it only an online special. Thanks..NT

No, It means M&J are going to go with 50 ammo can caches. God I love ammo cans[

I did the same type of side by side real world performance test, my brothers' Venture and my M315.
I got the opposite results Searching_ut got. My brother ended up offing his Venture to buy a Meridian Gold. Now his buddy, (the one he sold the Venture to) wants to trade it in for a Meridain. I guess your milege may vary..All I know that you have to know how to get the most out of you gear.
Case in point, If you want the best range out of your frs radio, get up high on a hill, I get my 1/2 watt radio to reach my friends house 22 miles away using gps to get the range down..

Update: Well I since bought the M315 and changed my mind about getting a Rhino. My brother got a Legend. I ended up with a Meridian Gold and I'm very pleased with it. My brothers can't lock on in areas we use it most (woods) he likes mine better. The Gold will always keep a good lock at sats his can't. He sold it last month and bought a Sportrak Pro which he loves....

Try this site it should help. Let us know if it worked out for you..

Hey, I know you! What version do you have now? When you first start the unit it will tell you.
Just download off Magellans web site. You may need to do this in steps depending on how old your current version is. With v3.15 you will swear it is a NEW GPS...

If you can find a Magellan 330 on clearance that would be a good unit, I've seen one go (on a red tag sale) for 125.00 . If you can afford it I would get the Magellon Sport Trak Pro, you get a 50.00 rebate. It has 23 megs of storage. Thats a real nice unit. Hope this helps.NT

I'm no expert and need help>> Any and all are wecolmed to help me out...

Goodguys are clearing out ALL GPSs, I wasn't in the market for a new onw but for 119.00 for the Meridian Gold I would be a fool to pass it up.

I decided to go with v.4.06..I followed the steps to the letter and now my GPS works BETTER than the old v.3.12..It takes only 35seconds to lock on sats and draw the map. I can get to within 2' of my bench mark in the back yard. My old M-315 with v3.15 is also there with the Merigold. I have used it for a few days now and i'm totally satisfied with its performance. My brother will be happy to know that I didn't mess it up. Thanks to all that responed. If you haven't made the change what are you waiting for. Just follow the instructions, yes you'll loose all your way points but it's worth it. Bye to all..Final post ...NT
