+Folshen Posted May 2, 2005 Posted May 2, 2005 Ok, the fastest my Legend has ever travelled is maybe a little over a hundred miles per hour... Settings had just been cleared a couple weeks ago yet I noticed yesterday that on the Max Speed listing it shows 437MPH... ??? Any idea what caused this and why? Unit seems to be working just fine. Thanks, Folshen Quote
+Miragee Posted May 2, 2005 Posted May 2, 2005 A while back there was a thread about maximum speeds. I'm not sure what causes it, but some people's units went way faster than that . . . Quote
rickertk Posted May 2, 2005 Posted May 2, 2005 A while back there was a thread about maximum speeds. I'm not sure what causes it, but some people's units went way faster than that . . . Looking back through my mountain biking tracklogs, that tends to happen when I think I get a brief stray signal from a satellite. As a result, the track suddenly shifts position for a few seconds a few hundred feet to one side, then shifts back. Those transition legs tend to be when it comes up with a speed in the 100-200 mph range. I'm not sure whether this is a result of a multi-path error, or a weak signal overall, but they don't tend to happen much in good reception conditions. Keith Quote

I've seen speed up to 1700Kph (1056Mph) while drive at normal speed. But, the fastest my Legend has really travelled is 800Kph (approx. 500Mph). I was on a plane between NYC and Montreal. That was cool! Ciao! GrosseFamille Quote
+Folshen Posted May 2, 2005 Author Posted May 2, 2005 I've had the unit for a couple years with no problems...just wanted to make sure this wasn't an upcoming problem. So long as its not just mine I guess all is well. Thanks, -Folshen Quote
