Try a reset (poke tiny hole underneath with paperclip).
First time after that will take ages but may fix it after that

And you should be out of doors and not moving to help get the quickest fix.

In that case, hopefully yours is still under (2 year) guarantee. I'd suggest sending it back.

My original 300 worked fine (I thought) until I spotted that the reception strength dropped significantly as soon as I clicked it onto the mount, and the situation seemed to be getting worse and worse.
I sent it back, and although what they said they returned to me was a refurbished replacement, it looked brand new, and that one has always had much better reception in all situations than my original one ever did.
