That is interesting and I did turn on the receiver first but perhaps did not wait long enough before turning on the application. I went outside, and it improved. Karen

That happens occasionally with trekker, and what I do is to shut 
down
the application and the GPS receiver, and turn on the receiver, 
and
restart the application. When you want to use the system, do you 
turn
on the receiver first? I have found that the system comes up 
faster if
you turn on the receiver, and wait a minute or two before 
starting the

application.

Hello, I turned on my gps and it says acquiring satellites but 
just sits
there for quite a long time. How long should I wait for it to do 
this?
I noticed it's seems easier to get the satellites early but now 
it's

around noon and nothing much comes up.  Why is this? Karen
