Tips
Do not cover the internal antenna with anything. The
GPS signals are easily blocked. The Bluetooth antenna
is also in this area.
The GPS will attempt to get a lock anytime it has
power. Turn off power when inside to avoid long lock
times later due to the GPS giving up and thinking it has
to initialize itself.
Get a position lock before driving off or entering the
woods where reception may be more difficult. The GPS
can hang onto a lock easier than it can get one.
Only one program can talk to the GPS at a time. If you
have trouble connecting to the GPS, be sure that some
other program is not using it.
