It's important to understand that GPS reception is a statistical
process and due to some of the averaging times and framelengths
being quite long, a receiver will not necessarily notice loss of
signal instantly, and similarly, it may not be able to reaquire
locking instantly because even very small drifts will push the
correlator out of the center in a few seconds.

Never attribute to malice what can adequately be explained by incompetence.
