Hi,
It’s possibly on the way out. I don’t have an 18x but can get badformat
showing if I pull the antenna on a NMEA source. Another possibility, it
could be that you have a GPS jammer in the vicinity. If you run your cv
command in a loopover a day you may see some pattern in the badformat
counts. Mike
Hey Mike,
Thanks for the reply. If I can find some free time I'm going to get
graphing going. I also take your point on the badformat pattern.
GPS jammer I had not thought of. Of course anything is possible, but I
live in a subdivision in the midwest USA - and I think most of my
neighbors are the "use the ISP's router" and "call Geek Squad" types. I
will keep a lookout for suspicious unmarked vans bristling with antennae
though :)
I think I might bite the $70 USD bullet and just get a new one to try out.
Worst case I will have a backup unit.
