Hi Alberto,

Why almanac data are not kept ? Not enough space in that non volatile
memory ?

the thunderbolt is meant for permanent installation in mobile base
stations where power outages are pretty rare, so I guess the designers
didn't see it worthwhile.

Takes a SRAM chip and a battery to hold power. Not big magic, but if the application is very unlikely to need it, it will just be a waste.

Almanac, position, fairly recent parameters from the oscillator and configuration would all be suitable to go in there.

Cheers,
Magnus
