Hi Jon,jthocker said:I have a 360map that I was going to use in my 8 along with an Apollo SL60.
I get an error message when starting up that says the unit needs service.
I don't know if it's an expensive fix or not but I'm going to just use the SL60 GPS for basic nav and get a 396 for map in the near future. SO the 360 map is just sitting around waiting for an offer.

I have been doing a little more research and found out that Jeppeson is not listing database updates for the Apollo 360 anymore on their website.
This is a little discouraging since my database is several years old and needs updating....
Hi Larry,n5lp said:Try Garmin. I updated mine just a couple of months ago.
rvator51 said:Hi Larry,
That is great news. I looked at the Garmin site first and didnt see the 360 listed. I will call Garmin and see what it takes to do an update. Looks like you have to use a laptop PC and a diskette from Garmin?
I wonder why they won't let you download the file direct to your computer? Is there some type of copy protection on the floppy so you can only use it once or not transfer the file to your computer? I am going to have to find a floppy drive as well.n5lp said:That's right. I actually had to buy a USB floppy drive to do this. Not many computers have floppy drives anymore.
