Joerg brought this to my attention and as I understand this, the issue has to do with how some GPS modules handle dates. In general the older the instrument, the more likely there is a problem. I guess this is another punishment associated with making instruments that last so long.
With respect to Flytec instruments there have been several GPS modules used over the years and each one will have a different rollover date. I am not familiar with the GPS modules used in the Oudie and if/when they will have a rollover issue. For these reasons I have asked Joerg/Naviter respond directly to you. I suspect that in some devices it may not be practical to update the GPS module, some may be able to get module upgrades and there maybe the possibility of a software update to overcome the modules limitation.
The Connect/P1 uses a Ublox module which I don’t think will have this issue.
