Hello, Thank you to all who replied and for all the suggestions!
Yes, Static Navigation is a feature built-in in SiRF III-based GPSs and I used SiRFDemo to set it. It is supposed to eliminate drift. I'll check with SiRF directly if they can advise how to tune it. Actually yes, I enabled Track Smoothing too and that didn't help. I have not raised the satellite signal strenght threshold, this is next on my checklist. I set degraded mode and dead reckoning on (I found it really cool to have a GPS receiver that supports those modes!!!). I'll have to try with these features turned off. Anyways I hope a combination of all or some of the suggestions received on this newsgroup will solve that drift problem!
