Ya, I thought it was strange operation. As far as I know, mine is OEM GPS unit, in a CF-30MK3. Is there any chance that it is related to the desktop problem I have with Makulu OS?
I have a TuffTech unit in my CF-19MK4. Love it, nice kit.

I looked into Navit and couldn't find any way to tweak the speedometer. I'm not even sure if it uses distance-averaging or Doppler to measure speed, but I suspect that it uses the former since the latter is known to be very precise.
On that note I've also noticed the speed and coordinates jumping around on my system.

Okay, that clears up whether it was my GPS unit or the software causing the problem.
I have been on the road for almost a month, trip to Vancouver Island, 6 round trips to Ft. St. John and numerous day trip around Alberta. I have not noticed any change in the speed and/or coordinates Navit displays, I thought it might improve with usage.
Thanks for the update.
