GPS updates and collars
So wondering if anyone has come across this issue with the GPS collars from Garmin. We have 4 dc40 collars, 3 guys with older astro 320s that have not been updated. However we have a small pup that we want to get a t5 mini collar for. We have heard the old software can't run the mini collars. If we update can we still see the dc40s? Or will we then lose those if we update to the t5 software. Any ideas welcome thanks guys!

You can still run older collars after the update.

Re: GPS updates and collars
The 320 and 430 both work with the new collars. Obviously tracking only. Not sure the 220 will though. Even had to update my astro when I added a tt15. Couldn't get the tt 15 to hook up. Grabbed the box and put everything back in the box to return the "defective" collar. Flipped the papers out of the lid back on top. The top sheet said you may need to update unit. Turned out it wasn't defective after all. Who the heck reads all that paper stuff
