I recently updated to version 2.70, but the indication of latitude in
Swiss Grid CH1903 is now wrong (~-9 km error relative to exact
position): I reloaded version 2.60 (not available under Garmin!) and
it works again fine.

VistaCx 2.70
GPSMap76CS 4.20

Using Swiss Grid in comparison the Vista is off by 300m too much
eastwards and about 10600m southwards. The 76CS seems spot on (no geo
reference point, only checked on the basis of the 1:25.000 paper map)

BTW: The Changelog for the 76CSx shows this bug too:
Changes made from version 3.10 to 3.20:
Fix issue with the Swiss grid providing incorrect coordinates.

Obviously the eTrex-Series are affected too.

Regards,
