It is working good now - I figured that when I was in NYC it could not pick up a 3rd satellite. To get the normal map program to work only requires 2 positions but the program tells you height - I believe that requires 3 positions. It seems any time I do not have a clear view to the south, the program is waiting for a GPS fix - But what do I know :) - all I know is it worked well today :)

As you said you downloaded the Northeast maps. When XCSoar starts for the first time it assumes you are somewhere in middle Europe (thats what was shown on my device the first time). So you have to wait and be patient, until your device gets the current GPS coordinates. That's the red circle: the device is working on getting a 3D fix. When you get a fix, then you should see the map and your location. I think XCSoar saves the last fix, before shutdown, so next time you won't have a problem. I assume that your device has an internal GPS? Good luck, Reno ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Benefiting from Server Virtualization: Beyond Initial Workload Consolidation -- Increasing the use of server virtualization is a top priority.Virtualization can reduce costs, simplify management, and improve application availability and disaster protection.
