Have you done a physical inspection up on the tower?  And has another tenant 
fired up anything new on the tower that could be interfering with GPS signals, 
either by physically blocking the view of the satellites, or RF interference?  
LightSquared testing some equipment on your tower?

Are there any GPS interference tests being conducted by the government in your 
area?

Subject: Re: [AFMUG] All units on a tower lost GPS sync

I've seen GPS antennas die before, seen water in a type-N conenctor, and have 
seen the sync source die (daughter board on a CMM3, or whatever on CMM4.  There 
are a few points of failure that could cause that.

  What radios?  What's giving them sync?

    What would cause GPS sync to drop on 5 units on a tower? Have 3 sectors and 
2 backhauls which keep losing GPS sync. Can reboot the units or turn gps off 
and on by selecting a different source and then changing it back GPS. It then 
works for a short time before it stops again.  On phone with Cambium but there 
seems to be a language barrier at the moment. :-) 

    These have been rock solid for months until about 8am EST this morning.


    Any ideas?
