Ya, never had this problem with Garmins before. Just wont find a satellite for the life of me, which makes it half as useful. Ive only used this one for two seasons too. Its basically brand new.

Sometimes if you travel long distance between turning it off & then on it needs to be initialized again. It’s looking for the satellites for where it was, which might be different than the satellites where it is.

My old hunting buddy had constant locking problems with his. Get one of the newer ones like a 650 or 750. Lock is almost immediate and the added features are great.
