Originally posted by Fenwoodian Simosvak, sounds like it's time to maybe think about returning your K3II. Good luck with your return. I have heard good things about Amazon.com and their returns policy.
I did the recalibration on my GPS and my compass still works perfectly.
I will be keeping my K3II because, at this time, my rare and sporadic GPS problem is only a minor annoyance to me. But I will be watching it closely over the next few days and if the GPS gets to be as bad as yours, I will be returning my K3II to my vendor. Also, after my 30 day replacement policy, I also have a one year Pentax/Ricoh warranttee. So if the GPS problem does get worse in a few months I expect that I'll be able to send my K3ii in to Pentax/Ricoh for a free repair.
Anyway, the joys of being an early adopter!
