You should see that same date string at the beginning of the B
records, as well.* But I guess those would only happen if you were
moving?

My 302 was purchased new in 2008 and has the black case. I fly often which may helped the GPS battery to stay charged longer, not sure.
I just checked the NMEA sentence on the ground (no IGC log since I didn't fly or drive with it) and the NMEA sentence $GPRMC has the string 141214 after the coordinates. Today was 12/14/2014 and from what I gather this confirms my date is still correct.

My latest 302 file is from October and the date is fine. It shows this line in the record:

HFGPS:GARMIN,LVS-25,12,18000

Does anyone know if this is one of the affected GPS engines?
With the 302 installed in my glider (which sits in my basement) I don't have a good way to test the unit.
