[gps-talkusers] Re: Antenna for hollux.

Someone gave me an external antenna a couple of days ago. So far I have tested it in cloudy conditions and it was not significantly different with the antenna on the roof of the car as opposed to the antenna that is built-in the receiver. It would likely not be any better if you are walking because I think it depends on making a good ground with something magnetic, like a car roof, to work well. I will play with it more and let you know if I feel it is worth it, but right now, I don't think so.

Subject: [gps-talkusers] Antenna for hollux.
I think the hollux works really well, even in my pocket or in a bag which I have on my belt. Never the less, I was wondering whether anyone has tried the external antenna with the hollux, and whether it makes any significant difference as to the number of sattellites received, particularly in adverse conditions.
