Roger ,, my Lowrance H20 C GPS is sitting on the desk. No unlock code.

All I do is turn it on, insert the little card with the navigation charts ..
and these charts cover everywhere on the east coast, west coat, everywhere.

The reason I went with Lowrance was the unlock code setup from Garmin..

A sailor on the newsgroup recommended the Lowrance to me.

I bought mind from Tiger GPS.. and internet store.. total was under $300.

If you are really upset with Garmin bring the GPS back and go Lowrance.

I got it.

I registered the GPS which I hadn't done the first time. The information
on finding the serial number in that site section is more complete but
still wrong. It says it is on the back but it is inside and is the
sticker I first used. I also appeares on a very small sticker on the top
(not the bottom) of the box that doesn't look like the sticker they show a
picture of on the web site.

Anyway, I went through the routine of unlocking for a second GPS (you are
allowed two) and it worked. I have my GPS working but now I have to call
Garmin and find out whether they think I have two units and see if I can
pursuade them to delete the first, ghost, unit so I can load the charts on
the backup GPS I have yet to buy.
