Hey all,
I sold my boat and don't need my Standard Horizon HX870. I am trying to sell it. I didn't realize resetting an MMSI was such a pain. However, it appears Standard Horizon says you can do that if you have the right firmware version.
First question: What is the reason they make MMSI removal so difficult? It appears this model is one of very few that allows you to do a reset.
Second question: Standard Horizon called and said we don't have the right firmware to reset the device remotely, so now I must send it in. Has anyone ever updated their own firmware on this? Seems possible with the right software. Anyone know of any other tips vs. sending this back to them? Local stores?
