Is that just the nature of hte beast or do I need to adjust something?

could it be the earthmate reciever? I have the earthmate reciever and software (though I don't use it anymore in the car) and I noticed that I was off quite a bit as well.....though the software didn't snap to teh road.....

wondering if the reciever might have something to do with it?
