My one is the size of a matchbox and twice as thick. I wouldn't rely on it
in Central London because it can't always get a signal - not just when
you're near tall buildings but when it's dark too. If it gets a signal then
it can be helpful but be prepared for it not to work. Possible a 70 %
success rate in Central ldn

Hi Steve and others,
Is there a particular Hollux receiver you would recommend? Which is the
smallest and the best? Can you describe the size by comparing it to
something in real life, a matchbox or a pen or something?
Can you measure the sensitivity of GPS receivers? For instance, is there a
scale? Or a rating? Or a version number like there is with light sensitivity
in camcorders with their lux rating?
Thanks!
