My comment would be that some gps receivers want to see a particular antenna current. Maybe thats low. Further if the battery backup for the gps unit has failed it can easily take 4-6 hours to figure life out on older receivers. Unless like odetics you can tell it what sat to look for, not likely since these were intended for un-attended sites. If you power down it has to start all over again.... Good luck and we will all learn from your effort. Paul WB8TSL
