In preparation for the NASA SLI launch this Saturday, I had the team turn on their TeleMetrum to simulate the up to 1 hour hold time on the pad. It has been months since the altimeter has been even turned on. In general, we could not get any GpS satellites (0). We left the unit on for the hour and the monitor indicated 3 sats had been found, but no lock (none expected, of course). We took the altimeter for a walk around the neighborhood in the hopes of avoiding shadowing, but with no improvement. We will try again today in case the local ionosphere LOS was particularly strange yesterday, but that is really grasping at straws. Can someone point us in the right direction to troubleshoot the problem?
