I had a GpS many years ago butt did not upgrade it when I went to the MPower. I
have a new one now with my Apex and really am amazed with all the changes and
the new receivers.
One puzzle though is that it does not recognize our home address. I think my
prior GPS did and those for taxis and delivery all recognize it from my
experiences. Its not a satellites problem. It actually couldn't set it as a
destination. And when I got here, it identified it incorrectly which is no
surprise given that it said it didn't exist when I entered it as the
destination. Maybe I should stop paying property taxes on this address,LOL.
So do different systems have different maps? I ask because, as I said, I know
that taxi drivers, friends etc. put my address into their destinations and plan
routes here. But both of our Sendero units do not recognize the address. Any
way to calibrate it or do anything other than set a POI? Will this potentially
be improved with the new maps system? My address is totally consistent with
other numbering in the area, and the info from the GPS actually isn't
reasonable.
