Actually, before I plugged the GPS antenna into the second unit, I checked out
where it last called home:
LAT N 36:01:05.225
LON E 128:41:48.761
HGT +1214.14 m (MSL)
Mt Palgong, according to Google Earth
Lots of transmitter towers up there, and covered in ice and snow in
January/Feb...
Seems to overlook Chilgok, Daegu, and Yeongcheong
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palgongsan
says it's 1193m ASL, which is awful close to the 1214.14... That could
be a datum difference, or a tower height issue.
Daegu is the 4th largest city in Korea and has 2.5 million residents
Fascinating stuff you learn.
