Username | Checked outside? | External antenna? | Note |
---|---|---|---|
Pthorin | Yes | No | I tried for about 40 minutes outside, I'm running om-gta02 P1-Snapshot-20080622. Did get GPS time outside, but only got lines like:
$GPGSA,A,1,,,,,,,,,,,,,99.99,99.99,99.99*30 --Pthorin 05:11, 11 July 2008 (UTC) I tried it out once again after removing the front cover and got a fix quite fast, less than five minutes. Could there be an issue with the case blocking the signals? Could the snap/latch above the antenna be a problem? |
iandouglas | Yes | No | Spent over a half hour outdoors, the NMEA port on my Samsung Blackjack 2 found my position just fine, but also got the same 99.99,99.99,99.99*30 line as Pthorin when powering on the GPS unit, starting gpsd, then running gpspipe at the command line |
