Hello Kim,
Thanks for the suggestions.
I really have fun with the G P S.
Wonder which one you have?
I am still learning.
Do you know how to delete a point of interest from a list I have created?

Hi: - Sometimes this can happen, it usually occurs if you haven't used your
GPS for awhile, or if you go inside a building and forget to turn your GPS
unit off, this basically confuses your GPS unit, when this happens your GPS
has to literally go searching for satellites around the globe to determine
where it is located. Also this can occur on cloudy days, or places where
buildings and trees are close in, and you don't have a clear view of the sky
for picking up a satellite. All the best. - Kim

Hello,
I am new to this list.
I have a voice note with the 5.1 software and am using a sportster satellite


receiver.
At times it takes almost 10 minutes for the receiver to get a fix on
satellites.
Is this normal?
