Calling any Garmin 18x users, I noticed this morning that my Garmin 18x was giving the time 1 second slow to UTC - it has been running in sync with UTC for about 2 years now.
Garmin has recently ( 13th Dec 2010 ) changed the 18x firmware from 3.30 to 3.50, so I updated my GPS sensor just now to the new version 3.50 - and it is "still" 1 second slow to UTC. I tried two of my older Garmin 18 (no x) modules, and they are in sync with UTC. All three Garmins are showing (on the $PGRMF sentence) that the delta between GPS time and UTC is 15 seconds (which is correct). I guess it is that time of the year when "pending leap seconds" can apply (although Dec 31 2010 is NOT going to be a leap second year). So I wondered, any other folk out there with a Garmin 18x - is it 1 second slow to UTC ?
