Thread: About 37xx converted to 34xx satellites reception accuracy

I didn't mean GPS accuracy in general but specifically accuracy value displayed on satellite screen. In my opinion it is totally useless as an criteria to estimate general GPS accuracy for the reasons I stated above.

Edit: maybe you know saying: garbage in, garbage out. If you use garbage as a test criteria then you will get garbage as a result of your research.

I completely agree, but we have to prove it. I understand that the only truly reliable way would be to have the raw data from satellites, not processed (static and dynamic) turning in RINEX format (for pos processing) and compare, but this is a complicated task in Garmin GPS (but not impossible). Therefore I believe that a simple and reliable method to compare the differences in accuracy between the two firmwares is simultaneously record tracklogs of some way (in off-road mode, Dem and 3D off) and thus to be able to clarify whether there are significant discrepancies and confirm or not if the values ​​displayed on the screen can serve as a comparative parameter, what has been done so far.
