I am using a new Garmin 176C and a 13-14 yr old Impulse 3100(?) loran/depth sounder combo. I am using the same waypoints, yet when comparing the two on runs my GPS always shows about 1.25 miles more on a 9-10 mile leg and also a little difference in degree of heading. I sent the Garmin in for warranty repairs and got the familiar fix, corrupted software. They both get me to the same location. I think the Loran is more accurate because I have a hard time getting WAAS signals this far up in the northwest.<br />Any ideas as to why this is happening would be appreciated.
