This isn't exact, but if our 498 won't get a fix after not being used for a few months. If that 'next' is too many days, the GPS will show the chart but won't get a fix. Seems the GPS remembers some information about satellites from one usage to the next. I ask because we have a rather old (maybe not as old as your G12) Garmin 498.

I realize they are older, but I was thinking it would at least work, and allow me to navigate.
