First outing with the 67, faithful trace a bit shaky, but overall in the village it's quite correct.
Tomorrow longer hike and a little in the woods, finally in the holm oaks.

A new bug discovered, when I record a track, I want to see in "current track", I go to the altitude page and I press the "menu" button, the 67 goes out and starts again immediately but does not lose the track recording, you just have to press "resume" with the "enter" key.

Do you also take the 66sr for testing?

No, not at the moment, but I know the 66sr isn't very reliable around town between houses. I will do the test well.

Another bug, when I search for tracks in recorded tracks, and I press the paddle continuously to make it move faster, I release the button and the scrolling does not stop, impossible to stop it, it stops by itself at the beginning of the list.

That’s not really a bug IMHO. The unit just queues up the key presses and probably you have a long list so the device “gets behind” so to say. This also happens when you go into Find and list for example all POIs nearby.

Except that on the 66sr there is not this bug, when you keep pressing it goes from track to track and when you release it stops, so it's a bug.

Firmware version?

We are unable to duplicate at this time. Any additional details you can share to help us?

Wow, you must have a very quick trigger finger as I can only ever get about three selections ahead of the Saved Tracks Menu on my GPSMAP 67 v4.80. If you press the D-PAD key more times than there are menu selections to highlight, you will get exactly the behavior you describe.

I ordered another 32 GB, I will see if this problem continues.
Yes, please report your results. Perhaps test with Map page first but with only he Garmin maps loaded.
