[ST] FW: Technical Support Form - Product: GPS III+

["Chris Strizver" <strizver@xxxxxxxx>]

Here?s the answer about the accuracy circle guys. Looks like you can just
ignore it, as you can?t see it on low zoom, and it is inaccurate on high. In
fact, I?ll just turn the darn thing off; it doesn?t serve any purpose.

Dear Mr. Strizver,
        Thank you for contacting GARMIN.
The EPE of 20ft is your correct estimated position error.  As you zoom in
and are viewing the accuracy circle, just below the map scale you will see
the word overzoom.  As you reach this overzoom, your accuracy circle  will
be magnified by the overzoom, thus causing a discrepancy between the two.
If we can be of further assistance please let us know.
PS-Please include all email correspondence already written when you reply to
this email so that it can be answered in a timely manner.  Erasing the text
may mean a delay in response, or that the email does not reach the person(s)
with whom you are communicating.

Problem:                The accuracy circle on the map fluctuates between an
accuracy of 200 and 500ft, but the reported EPE on the sat page is around
20ft. Which one is the real error, and why do they not match?    Thanks!
