Did you see any improvements in the mapping?
I have it but haven't loaded it yet, maybe tomorrow.
I downloaded the 4.0 to an SD card but it won't load on the DF. I thought when I inserted the SD card and powered up the HDS it would automatically update. Do I have to download to my PC and unzip it and then load to the SD card. Right now it is a zipped file on the SD card.

You have to unzip it. Once unzipped, copy the UPD file to the SD.

OK I did that and when I go to screen where it shows the UPD file and press upgrade and choose "this display" it reboots and supposedly updates but I don't see where it changed anything.
I still have hidden screens when I have the sonar chart displayed.

I have had old units get water penetration. I just take them apart and hang them out to dry. Two conditions that really screw up electronic units. 1. If the get wet with power on. 2. If the get wet and not dried out.

Insert the sd with the UPS file, then power up the unit. It will automatically update. There is no personal interaction during the process.

Well this is a new unit so I don't think that is the problem. It reboots just like it indicated when I selected the 4,0 UPD file but I can't see any difference.
