[QUOTE="Barbara, post: 105561, member: 14873"] Just a note here, that some may find interesting. The number of satellites is not necessarily a conclusive indicator that you will have a good GPS signal. It does mean, with more satellites, that given good signal strength, you will get a more accurate fix on your location. There are other factors that come into play that can cause a bad/weak GPS signal regardless of how many satellites you can see. My other half is a Ham Radio Operator and spends much time listening to the "[URL='http://www.spaceweatherwoman.com/']Space Weather Woman[/URL]", Dr. Tamitha Skov. One of the things I frequently hear her say in her forecasts is that GPS and GLONAS users will be negatively affected for a period of time, usually from the effects of coronal mass ejections impacting the Earth's magnetic field and ionosphere. Just an observation by my Geek self. [/QUOTE]
