Hi Joe. I believe that if you find a 33s with date code 524 or newer you should get the new and improved model with the bug fixes.
Happy Computing!

You have to test it by operating it through the blister pack. Difficult but not impossible.
You need to run the H.MS DMS routine (check to see if it mishandles negative values) and the Polar-Rectangle routine (test to see if it gets confused going from 90degrees r=1 to X,y and tehn back---if it gives 270 degrees it hjas the bug.
