Re: [AFMUG] GPS problems around 11:30 to 1:30 every night

Just checking ours. I thought it happened once every month or two, but I guess it's not even that often. The snapshot from the last 3 months indicate that it got close to losing it in week 12, but it seems to have lived through it, even though it got down to 3 satellites tracked. bp

Re: [AFMUG] GPS problems around 11:30 to 1:30 every night

We have this at a couple sites each year.  Usually, I can mount the GPS antenna in a different place and solve the issue.  Whats interesting is, I don't see this issue with the SyncBoxes, only CMM Micro.  And I have both at the same towers affected. On 4/6/2018 4:39 PM, Bill Prince wrote:

Re: [AFMUG] GPS problems around 11:30 to 1:30 every night

We have a SyncInjector mounted on the south side of a concrete building. The building is thick concrete ( > 12"),  and extends up above the location of the GPS antenna 30 or 40 feet. The building is also a shallow "V" shape with the GPS antenna at inside base of the V. So the GPS antenna gets

Re: [AFMUG] GPS problems around 11:30 to 1:30 every night

But the question is, why at the same time every day? Especially since the gps satellites don't orbit on a 24 hour period... that's what has me troubled with my customer. On Fri, Apr 6, 2018, 2:11 PM Bill Prince wrote: > Exposure to the north or south should not make a

Re: [AFMUG] GPS problems around 11:30 to 1:30 every night

Exposure to the north or south should not make a significant difference. GPS satellites, excepting the WAAS satellites, are not in geostationary orbits. They are (mostly?) in medium earth orbit of around 12,000 miles. I think it may be more of how much of the sky they can see. bp

Re: [AFMUG] CPU - when to upgrade

My rule of thumb is >50% = upgrade. I wouldn't argue with 25% either. We see a % CPU usage which updates every second. I don't know if it's a 1 second average, or a rolling 5 second average, or whatever. Either way there could be milliseconds within that average where all CPU time is

Re: [AFMUG] GPS problems around 11:30 to 1:30 every night

We have a couple of them that'll lose GPS signal for a couple hours pretty much every day (I'm not sure if it's every single day or not, but it is most days). One of them is mounted on the north side of a silo, so it have a very poor view of the sky, especially to the south. My theory is that

I have an epmp that has GPS problems and goes into the hold timer for a few minutes every single night for the last many months (maybe even a year). Didn't think much of it until I noticed all of the times being right around midnight, give or take... WTF? Any ideas what's causing it? Josh

No, they'll go high enough for MPLS/VPLS, it's just limited to 1580, which is a lot lower than most of the other Mikrotiks. On Fri, Apr 6, 2018 at 6:20 AM, Josh Baird wrote: > Ugh - I wasn’t aware of any MTU limitations on the 850GX2. Are you saying > I’ll have problems
