You guys got me interested.  

Ken.Carpenter@garmin.com, a field service rep, took my call and said he would find out for me tomorrow how I can get access to the software.  You have to be granted access (in fact, the first reaction was "you have to be a dealer").  

Access to the field reps is via the general Aviation Support line at 866-739-5687, then they'll hand you off to the field reps but won't give you a direct phone number unless you're a dealer   BUT  there's probably a better route which I should have figured out (and will report on) within a day or two.  

Anyone who beats me to it, please squawk!   Thanx ---

I did my own upgrade to -10, -11, and -13.  Just follow the menu structure in order, and press the save config softkey after each menu page load completes.  It will take about 2-3 hours, so have ground power connected.  There should be a document on your garmin FTP site that has the instructions.  Don’t skip any steps.

 

Make sure to restore your fuel tank calibration settings.

 

I put together a cheat sheet that lists all of my specific settings (such as cable DB losses, fuel flow factors, etc.) so you will be sure to change them during the update.  I would share it, but it is very specific to my setup that it won’t do you any good.
