TomS Aug 2008 6:02pm, 11 Aug 2008 4 posts	TomS Hello there, can anyone give me an opinion as to the accuracy of the elevation recording of the 305? If it's right good, if it's wrong bad, that means this running mularky is getting harder

RichyC Aug 2008 9:20pm, 12 Aug 2008 189 posts	RichyC HELP!! My Garmin is doing my head in. It's fine when I'm using it but PC doesn't seem to recognise it when I try to connect it up to upload my runs. I'm lucky if it recognises it once a week, the rest of the time it just says found new hardware. Any advice?
TomS Aug 2008 8:09pm, 13 Aug 2008 5 posts	TomS Thanks flanker, I use MotionBased to download my activities, is there nothing on MB that corrects the elevation reading? just been looking myself and I cant seem to see anything.
