GPS Receivers with known Y2K and EOW problems are listed below
                                         (14June1999)

The following GPS receivers reportedly will have EOW problems around
August 21,  1999.  These problem will range from longer startup times 
to failure to lock during week zero.  The firmware should be upgraded 
before August 21 1999.  As far as is known,  these units will report 
the correct POSITION as soon as the units acquire lock.

Magellan  is also testing products that are no longer in production, with the most recently produced products tested first. The results of those tests will be released as the individual tests are completed, and well in advance of either the EOW or Y2K event. As of January 13, 1999, we have determined the following Magellan products to be Y2K and EOW compliant:

                               FieldPRO V
                              Meridian
                              Trailblazer
                              Meridian XL
                              Trailblazer XL
                              NAV 1200
                              NAV 1200XL
                              SkyBlazer
                              SkyBlazer XL
                              SkyBlazer LT
                              SkyStar
                              Patriot
                              GPS 2000
                              GPS 3000
                              GPS 4000
                              GPS 3000XL
                              GPS 4000XL
                              GPS Pioneer

(Most consumer-grade units, including all Garmin, Lowrance and late model Magellan
units, will sail through 1999 without a hitch.)

Additional technical notes:
1**)Motorola Traxar
    Thank you for your interest in Motorola GPS.  Your Traxar unit should not encounter any problems with the week number rollover or Y2K.  As you are probably aware, it is not possible to enter the year 99 when starting up your unit as it only allows up to 98 to be entered.  Therefore, the way to handle this is to enter the current date but for the year 98 when you power up.  Allow the receiver to track satellites and calculate the position, then allow enough time for the unit to download the satellite almanac data (typically 13  minutes).  Once you do this, the unit should be able to update its  position correctly the next time you power it up.  If you haven't  turned on your Traxar yet this year, this is the process you will have to follow to get it running correctly.  You may have to do this again after the week number rollover (August 21, 1999), and after the Y2K rollover.  We hope you find this information useful.  Regards,  Motorola  Oncore Technical Support
