I have seen the SyncPipes do exactly the same thing. Sats visible, but
none tracked. A power-cycle will usually bring them right back. They
just seem to get confused once in a while.
I have one very problematic site. We've tried swapping pipes, cables,
everything. It just goes stupid. At times even no visible sats.
Power-cycle it and it will see 10+ visible, but still can't get lock. A
couple more power-cycles will bring it back. And then it might go nuts
again an hour or two later. Then it's perfectly happy for weeks. I don't
get it. This is at a grain leg where we're in the process of moving
between legs. The new leg is across the street about 500 feet. That one
has a SyncInjector and pipe on the ground with metal all around and it
works perfectly fine. Splain me that. In fact, I pretty much never have
these issues with pipes attached to SyncInjectors. I have a site that
has been running for 444 days and the 1PPS event counter on that
injector is at... 1.

We've been running EPMP For a well over a year now. I have not made
any firmware changes in a while, everything is on 2.6.1, but last week
I had 2-3 sectors (not all sectors at the site) at 2 sites separated
by 20+ miles that started having sync problems to the point where I
had to set them to generate sync. Is it just isolated to me, or is
something going on with the GPS Sky thingies that is affecting EPMP?
All radios are using the included GPS Antennas, and have been
installed for several months. I'll see either all satellites
disappear from the monitor->GPS page, or it will show satellites as
visible but not tracked with an SNR of 0. I have tried both Software
reboot, as well as powercycle, and they're are still acting this way.
I've included the graphs for 3 sectors at the same site. Blue is
visible satellites, green is Tracked Satellites. You can see the NW
Sector has visible, but is losing tracking. These were all working
fine until last week.
