It's found a whole lot more satellites now - tracking seven! Once self survey is complete, should I set to overdetermined clock mode and dynamics code stationary?

I'm now looking at tboltmon - it's saying only 1 SV usable and 1% into self-survey, I only attached the antenna about 5-10 minutes ago. The antenna (car type) is mounted on a small disc of aluminium, and is about 40ft off the ground and has a reasonable view of the sky though there are some trees to the south of me. Antenna cable is 5mtrs of RG174.?? It shows a number of satellites with an AMU value (whatever that is) of 0. The one it's tracking has an AMU of >15. Is this normal as the self-survey starts? Or do I need a (much) more serious antenna (this one claims 28db gain)?
