I pressed MSG several times, and it kept appearing with other
notifications such as to remember to use OBS. I'm almost positive I
had it on Mode C, but I'll have to investigate these next
time...Thanks for the help.

Was this one of the airplanes at Cal Aggie? Which one?

Yeah, 4870G. I flew it a couple weeks earlier and didn't have this
problem, at least I don't think, but that was the first time I was
introduced to this GPS with a CFI. I must have not had the mode
switch all the way on ALT, I could've sworn I did though.

Well ... don't underestimate the ability of really old airplanes to
break ;-)
