Bill,

As I recall, it powers up to the last screen you were using. Well, actually, check that. It powers up to the satellite screen as it tries to get a lock on satellites. Once the lock is complete, it switches to the last screen you were using when you powered off. That's to the best of my recollection, as mine always goes to the chart, but that's always how I power it off too.

The only other thing I can think of is, if you have it wired to an accessory switch as I do, make sure you turn off the unit, before killing the switch. As I recall, it really didn't like just hitting the switch (didn't do any damage, but I think I lost settings, or something like that...).

I reply'ed to your e-mail as well.
