I'm brand new to this Garmin 430 updating process. Just got a 430WAAS
in my 201 and paid $149 for the data writer. They wanted another $150
or so for a second data card -- OUCH!! Haven't downloaded update yet
but will soon. Did you say I need a different writer for the terrain
card!?? And it is a different card type so if I need a backup for that
I will need to pay an extra $150 or so? And it costs $410/year for
terrain updates!?? I think I'll take up bowling! Heck, terrain doesn't
change much ... Ok towers and such but still, this is silly. What is
the FAA requirement for updating terrain data cards??
