Default Garmin 45 software update ?

Well maybe... but those Garmin 45 units have to be at least 10 years old.
That's a long time in the life of an electronics gadget.

Mine still works like a champ.

OH! Upon reflection, I remember that I sometimes have to unscrew the
antenna and clean the connection to get a good "read". The slight
corrosion also causes it to lose the satellites on a cloudy day or
below decks. That could be the original poster's problem.
