What a piece of junk!

if you can’t find the foil beanie

at your local Wal-Mart, try covering your pith helmet with Reynolds Wrap Release and form a swan antenna on top. You know, like they do when you take home food from a fancy restaurant.
Shine on, Kaps

Are you
pointing it at the satellites the proper way? I have a Garmin E-trex Legend and I’ve found that if I don’t point it right at the satellites it won’t work…and make sure you do it during day light hours while they’re still visible…

Perhaps it’s calibrated in
inches per minute. Put it on your back during sex and see if it records.

LMFAO
I don’t think Wal Mart has ever even considered selling foil beanies, as Wal-Mart stores are built with giant foil beanie roofing systems to protect the general populace.

Heard a rumor…

Heard a rumor that aliens are stealing aluminum & copper parts from some of the satellites. May be affecting some of the satellite's functions?

The gray ones are some theiving little bast..ds.

I bought a new Garmin Pretext.
I assume it is working correctly.
It gives the appearance of quality.
Haven't tried the cloaking feature yet.

:^)

problem
you have to hold the face of the device perfectly perpendicular to Garmin’s stationary satellite. You should have received a 10" brass sextant with your purchase and if not, contact Garmin immediately.

Mine works fine…
“Obviously NOT made for the serious multi-sport athlete”



That is funny a “serious multi-sport athlete” that sits indoors on a stationary bike & a treadmill… HAHAHAHAHAHA!



If you were “serious” and an actual “multi-sport athlete”, you would be outside & more than just running and biking.



Go outdoors & it should work just fine.



Paddle easy,

On my back!?
But I’m usually on the bottom …

Maybe it’s
multi-sport resistant.

Think harder!
Did you attach the required satellite dish? Good lord, how do you expect the electro-bits will make it up into space without the required 8 foot antenna and tracking system?



Sheesh!



Phreon

Sell
Since I don’t go anywhere,just to help you out,I would be willing to give you half price for it. At least you would get some of your money back

Return it for the Garmin Forehead 666
Stick it on your forehead and it’ll implant a sense of speed in your mind. Want to go faster, just think harder and the Garmin Forehead will implement a sense of speed.

Attach it to
your foot. Then it’ll read something!

Strap it to your chest…
…if it reads zero, you’re legally dead.

Try using it
on a staionary rowing machine and see how it works. It is possible the slaemans sold you the model designed just for paddling.

Inches per minute…
Do you really think “2…2…2…2…2…2” is going to help him in his training?

it’s obvious

the treadmill is running in the opposite direction of the earth's rotation, cancelling out your progress.

Try moving the treadmill outside, and place it perpendicular to the earth's rotation. Use the compass on your gps to make sure.

Electronic do-dads, often hopeless
Sounds like the hand-held digital anemometer my loving wife got me for my birthday. The money would have been better spent on a good (or even mediocre) bottle of Pinot Noir.

Next we can try
duct taping the fishfinder transducer to the rubber ducky to read the water temps in the hottub and find that step. Use the extra bits of tape to fashion the beanie for your GPS lazer signal booster.

This is why,
I bolted my treadmill to the front of my kayak. Now when I paddle I know just how fast I am going, and it is very accurate!-)
