Just discovered this document which details the monthly schedule for EGNOS transmissions. That said, it appears to have been broadcasting quite happily for the past few days, so I imagine I need to force the unit to seek the signal out again.
The issue with using EGNOS satellites with the GPS V appears not be so much with Garmin's firmware, but the European Space Agency.
Despite Garmin claiming that version 2.50 of their firmware is all good and that EGNOS are to blame, a downgrade to 2.40 of the GPS V firmware appears to fix everything.
Upgrading to v2.50 of the GPS V firmware seems to disable support for EGNOS satelilites in the UK.
