Press Menu, press Menu again,

select Setup, press Enter

select System, press Enter

press Menu, select Software Version, press enter

Or so I think anyway, I don't have my 76Cx at hand.

Some of the menus have more menus under them, some don't. Like there is
a menu under the Map Info menu from Map Setup that lets you turn all the
maps of one kind on or off. It took me awhile to find that and I was
trying to turn off hundreds of the individual maps one at a time from
the Map Info menu. That was dumb!

Did you notice the Card Info choice there too? That is a new feature
with the 3.20 software. The card info is good to have and it has
another empty menu under it. Maybe they will add some card utilities
there some day.

It would be great to be able to save and load waypoints and routes to
and from the microSD card. I mysteriously lost all my waypoints from my
76Cx once and if I could I would have them backed up on the card. The
data loss has only happened one time but if it happened away from home
it could be a real problem.
